Join NFTC as We Celebrate Our New Century!

A Centennial Celebration is literally a once-in-a-lifetime event. At NFTC, we are not content to merely celebrate our rich history. In the spirit of the first National Foreign Trade Convention, we want to seize this unique moment to examine critically the world trade landscape, analyze the mega-trends in force, and envision what the future of international trade will hold for our companies, industries, and America as a whole.

In 2014 NFTC will convene a nationwide series of activities and programs to examine the future of trade in the context of key industries, regions and issues. Now, as in 1914, the strength of NFTC rests in the community of our members. We invite all our member companies to partner with us as we seek to update the vision of Secretary Redfield a century ago: Beyond the endless talks, disputes, and questions—What is the future of American trade in the global economy?

Please join us in the many opportunities we have organized to Celebrate our New Century!


Nationwide Luncheon Series: The Future of American Trade
We invite member companies to sponsor a luncheon spotlighting the future of trade for your industry or sector.
NFTC will work with you on timing, speakers, audience, and location.

For example, ExxonMobil has committed to sponsor: The Future of Trade in Energy, Washington DC, in Spring, 2014.

Buffet Luncheon at hotel or public venue: $7500 If hosted at your company's conference center: $3000

Embassy Series: The Future of Trade Around the Globe
We invite member companies to sponsor an Embassy reception spotlighting the future of trade with a particular nation.
