The Global Chamber Tucson chapter opened this week and was greeted by a crowd of Tucson "Globies" who understand the importance of global business to the Metro Tucson and Southern Arizona economy. Guests drove from as far away as Phoenix and Hermosillo, Mexico.
"We welcome the Global Chamber to Tucson in support our global growth," said Mayor Jonathan Rothschild. "We see the need to grow internationally beyond Mexico, and so the Global Chamber can help regional companies in their pursuit of global business growth."
Thank you Mayor Rothschild! Additional speakers included...
Lea Marquez-Peterson - Tucson Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
Deputy General Consul of Mexico for Consul General Ricardo Pineda Albaran
Eric Nielsen - U.S. Commercial Service
Brent DeRaat - Visit Tucson
Stefan Baumann - Port of Tucson
The general consensus? Be global and UNSTOPPABLE!
Thank you to the global-minded business community for attending.
Stay engaged as we ramp up our team in Tucson.
