The World Trade Centers Association (WTCA) and World Trade Centre Mumbai would like to invite you to join the 2019 WTCA India/Asia Pacific Regional Meeting scheduled on March 8, 2019 in Mumbai, India. The program was developed to provide updates of WTCA global and regional network, best practice sharing between participating WTCs, and networking opportunities to create critical connections and synergy within WTCA family and beyond. The WTC Mumbai will invite eminent experts to speak on trends and issues of international trade and provide insights into the emerging spectrum of global trade and investments.


The India/Asia Pacific Regional Meeting coincides with the 8th Global Economic Summit organized by World Trade Centre Mumbai and the theme of this edition "Services: Enabler of Growth for Trade and Industry" aligns with the goals and objectives of the WTCA. As a gesture of goodwill, WTC Mumbai is pleased to offer complimentary registration for the delegates of India/Asia Pacific Regional Meeting. While participation to GES is optional, you are strongly encouraged to take the opportunity to join Mr. Scott Ferguson, WTCA CEO for this wonderful event. Enclosed please find a program brochure with details of GES.

Due to limited participation, the optional trip to Goa was cancelled at this point. However, we'll provide necessary assistance on an individual basis if you still plan to visit Goa.


You are requested to confirm your participation by online registration at the earliest to enable processing the visas smoothly. We look forward to seeing you in Mumbai in early March.
