DC Chamber of Commerce

We wrapped our incredible week at the SelectUSA Investment Summit with the Global Grand Slam at Nationals Park. Business leaders and city officials welcomed international guests to celebrate excellence and achievement! We enjoyed great company, lively music, delicious refreshments, and unbeatable networking opportunities. We want to extend a thank you to our partners: Washington DC Economic Partnership, Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development, Greater Washington Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, and Greater Washington Black Chamber of Commerce. It was a truly energizing and exciting week. Stay tuned for more events coming up from the #DCChamber!

We’re excited to share another key highlight: Our own D. Simone Williams-Arrington, Board Member and International Committee Co-Chair, delivered an inspiring session at the #SelectUSAInvestmentSummit! On a panel titled "Chat with a Lawyer: Top 8 Legal Mistakes Made by Foreign Entrepreneurs,” Simone Williams provided excellent insight for all business leaders and entrepreneurs to consider. The #DCChamber is proud to have Simone as a Board Member. Thank you for all you do!

The #DCChamber was proud to be part of SelectUSA's Investment Summit last week, bringing together key industry players and community members interested in entrepreneurship and investment. One of the key highlights from last week was getting the chance to watch DC Mayor Muriel Bowser participate in a fireside chat with Alex Orfinger from the Washington Business Journal. Mayor Bowser spoke on the unique landscape of DC’s business community and how the District helps businesses start and thrive in our nation’s capital. One of the key initiatives Mayor Bowser spoke on included the Washington, DC Global Soft Landing, an effort to attract international companies and entrepreneurs, which the DC Chamber is proud to be a part of. It was a fantastic session with plenty of lessons learned. A big thank you to Mayor Bowser and SelectUSA for the opportunity to share why DC is the best place to do business.
