Maximizing Your Membership Investment

Get the most out of your World Trade Center St. Louis Membership …

SUPPLY THE WORLD TRADE CENTER WITH INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR ORGANIZATION
The WTC has access to a worldwide network of contacts, databases and trade leads. The information that we receive from you will help to ensure that your specific needs are met. For instance, when you complete the country specific table on the member affiliation form, we will use that information to arrange private meetings with incoming trade officials, invite smaller groups to more focused seminars or arrange one-on-one meetings with sales prospects. You are encouraged to meet each member of the WTC staff. As each staff member learns more about you and your organization, they will be better equipped to meet your needs.

ATTEND AT LEAST FIVE INTERNATIONAL TRADE SEMINARS OR EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS
The WTC offers over 40 award-winning programs each year that cover a plethora of relevant international trade topics. From country-sepcific seminars and regulatory updates to trade legislation roundtables, attending just FIVE programs will help you find answers to your international trade questions and network with additional international colleagues. Don’t stop at just five though! The more educational programs or international trade seminars your company takes advantage of, the greater the benefits to your employees, your company, and you.
