Charleston-Caribbean Leadership Summit - Economic Sectors
The economic sector panels are composed of businesses interested in building the relationships necessary to increase business between South Carolina and the Caribbean. With business leaders from numerous areas joining in the discussion and dialogue, these working groups have the expertise and experience necessary to produce results. During the conference, each group will hear from a Caribbean and a South Carolina or US representative about the opportunities, challenges, and potential future developments of that economic sector. The panels will then have time to discuss these issues with a goal of problem solving and collaborative efforts to improve the chances for private sector investment and real world application. The focus of the conference is increased business between the two areas. These discussions are a milestone event and launching pad for working business relationships.
