Local to Global — Why Perimeter is HOT !
As we move forward with the Global Initiative for the Perimeter Region, we are celebrating our 2nd annual event - an evening that will award excellence in international business operations and recognize local leadership in the support of international business, education and culture. The 2011 event will be held at The Retreat at Perimeter Summit from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m.
The Global Gateway Event is the flagship culmination of our Chamber’s Global Gateway Initiative, designed to be our bridge for two-way international commerce. We are bringing together Consulates, bi-national Chambers of Commerce and international business groups for an evening of international food, entertainment, awards and networking. The program will provide updates on energy, legislation, education, transportation and global business. Many communities around the country have adopted international commerce initiatives – but the SS/PC has real competitive advantages for helping companies go global and recruit global companies.
- Partnership – Liaison between city, county, state and national governments (SS/PC played a leading role in lowering city occupational tax for 2011 – a great incentive for business!)
- Global – Consulates and successful global companies headquartered in the immediate area. Location/Transportation – Access to major highways, airports, seaports, and ground transportation, including six rapid rail transit stations.
- Local Economy – Strong and growing.
- Residential - Highly attractive residential neighborhoods and a superior quality of life.
- Medical – Home to several world-renown hospitals and doctors.
- Education - Alliances to foster international business literacy. Excellent schools with strong foreign language studies.
- Recreation – Many great restaurants, shopping, parks and other recreational facilities.
Capitalizing on these existing resources, we’ve expanded our passion for making our Global Gateway a real bridge to international commerce with people, programs and partnerships that will make a difference. We hope you’ll want to join us and support our vision – a vision of playing a leadership role in creating jobs, fostering international business literacy, supporting a strategic workforce, providing educational programs to enhance global business, and boosting the local and regional economy and that of our foreign partners.
