World Trade Week

Sponsorship and Support Opportunities (2012)

 

World Trade Week is celebrated across the country the third week of May in various ways. In New York City, WTW begins with an awards breakfast, exhibition, and Resource Forum, all held at Baruch College. The balance of the week is a series of educational and networking events that provide skills, resources, and intelligence to the import and export community, which are organized independently by WTW Partners. All WTW NYC-related events are promoted through www.wtwnyc.org.
