2012 NCAPEC Executive Roundtable

The 2012 NCAPEC Executive Roundtable will 2012 Executive Roundtable, will be held at the Hotel del Coronado in San Diego, CA from February 1-2, 2012. The Roundtable will be a critical forum that will bring together stakeholders from the public and private sectors to develop priorities for the 2012 APEC meetings as well as discuss the important economic issues that are driving APEC towards 21st century prosperity. 

Building on the momentum from the 2011 APEC Summit in Honolulu, HI, the highlight of our Roundtable will be a series of discussions on key regional and global issues which will help identify private sector priorities and input for APEC 2012. As part of this effort, senior Russian Federation government officials ABAC representatives have been invited to preview the upcoming APEC and ABAC 2012 work plans. Roundtable participants will also be able to examine APEC as a mechanism for U.S. economic engagement with the Asia-Pacific region as well as its role within the context of regional and global initiatives, and identify opportunities to improve the commercial environment for U.S. companies operating in the Asia-Pacific.

If you would like to attend the NCAPEC Executive Roundtable you can download the registration form, or contact us for additional information.
