  1. The Global Buyers Initiative Let the U.S. and Foreign Commercial Service connect you with the best U.S. suppliers.

  2. Our Global Network of Trade Professionals Connect U.S. Companies with International Buyers Worldwide. • The U.S. and Foreign Commercial Service (USFCS) provides U.S. companies unparalleled access to business opportunities around the world. • As a U.S. Government agency, we have relationships with foreign government and business leaders in every key global market. • Our trade professionals provide expertise across most major industry sectors. • Every year, we help thousands of U.S. companies export goods and services worth billions of dollars.

  3. The Strategic Partnership Office Our objective is to create partnerships between the US& Foreign Commercial Service and 3rd parties- Governments, Private sector and Associations– to broaden and deepen the U.S. Exporter base. We seek triple win scenarios: • Partners: Increased revenue and customer/member loyalty • SMEs: Get the export assistance they need to be successful and grow their business. • Department of Commerce: National Export Initiative is supported and jobs are created. “We’ll create public-private partnerships to help firms break into new markets with the help of those who have been there – shipping and supply-chain companies, for example.” President ObamaExport-Import Bank Annual ConferenceMarch 11, 2010

Ducker. • We will launch the program in Calgary, Paris and Seoul by February 2012. • By September 2012, we hope to launch the program in Australia, Colombia, Japan, Mexico, Panama and Singapore with several additional markets targeted soon thereafter. These markets were selected by cross-referencing ITA and FedEx priority markets and sectors. • We are looking to rapidly expand this program.

AmCham is significant partner with our Embassies, and specifically the Commercial Section. The GBI is an excellent opportunity for your non-U.S. members to learn about opportunities to source from U.S. suppliers, become more acquainted with our Commercial Specialists, and grow our bilateral trade!
