Dear BABCPHL Members and Friends,
It is rewarding and enjoyable to be hosting in-person programs and events once again. We are back in our sweet spot, doing what we do best – offering valuable and informative face-to-face meetings to help you expand your network and enhance your transatlantic business. If you attended any of our recent programs or you are reading our communications, you know BABCPHL programs are relevant and engaging.
In March we hosted A Global Economic Update featuring public and private sector industry leaders who delivered timely information about the current state of the economy here at home and abroad. Later in the month we had our Second Annual England vs. Ireland Rugby Watch Party. Both events were different in scope, but both included enthusiastic attendees. People eagerly came together to network, learn, and enjoy the occasion.
Next up on the docket is our Emerging Leaders Group UK-US Trivia & Networking Event, a US Customs & Border Protection Panel Discussion, and more! I invite you to scroll down and read through this newsletter for details.
The BABCPHL is your connector organization. Active engagement has benefits. As we always say, you get out of your membership, what you put into it. Register and attend our programs to ensure you are getting the most out of affiliation with our Group. We look forward to seeing you often during the coming days, weeks, and months. As Winston Churchill once said, “I am certainly not one of those who need to be prodded. In fact, if anything, I am the prod.” So, I am prodding all of you to come to our spring events!
Sincerely,
Howard M. Silverstone, MBE, CPA, FCA
President, British American Business Council of Greater Philadelphia
