For over three decades, the City of Miami
has emerged as the financial, commercial and
cultural hub of the Western Hemisphere.
Today, Miami serves as the undisputed
“gateway” to hundreds of companies from
around the world and a virtual meeting
ground for conducting global business.
Miami’s global exposure has been solidified
by hosting several high level international
gatherings over the past three decades,
including the 1994 Summit of the Americas,
birth place of the hemispheric free trade
movement; the signing of the U.S.-Chile Free
Trade Agreement (FTA); the 2003 Free Trade
Area of the Americas (FTAA) Ministerial and
Americas Business Forum; and, most recently,
the XI round of the U.S.-Andean FTA. Miami
has also served as the temporary site of the
FTAA Secretariat and is currently vying to
become its official headquarters when the
agreement is concluded.
A modern and diverse metropolis, Miami is a
true melting pot where all the peoples of
the Hemisphere – and the world - are
represented. Miami’s privileged geographic
location, state of the art infrastructure,
transportation services - air, sea, and land
- a multicultural atmosphere, world renowned
convention and meeting facilities, vast
financial, commercial and legal resources,
and most importantly, a talented and diverse
workforce are unparalleled.
Take a look and see why when business and
political leaders think of international
business, they think of Miami – your gateway
to the world. |
