Strengthening Florida’s Global Position—One Strategic Relationship at a Time
Following the success of our past delegation trips, the Florida Chamber launched the Global International Partnership Council to ensure Florida businesses remain connected to global opportunities and continue building long-term, cross-border partnerships.
This Council was created for forward-thinking Florida companies, entrepreneurs, and economic development leaders who understand that international engagement is essential to Florida’s economic growth and competitiveness in the decade ahead.
