Southeast Asia Training Seminar Concludes
 
The second activity under GCI, a comprehensive training seminar for a group of Southeast Asian delegates, successfully concluded in early November. The group of 29 delegates received in-depth training that focused on “The Development of a Risk Management Framework.” Training was provided by CBP, private sector companies, and a number of technical experts.

 


 

 

Sponsorship/Private Sector Participation

U.S. companies and organizations interested in receiving high-profile recognition in connection with GCI and its associated events should consider GCI corporate sponsorship. Sponsors receive tangible benefits and recognition opportunities designed to build awareness of their corporate capabilities to the target audiences – Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Vietnam – as well as representatives from their respective private sectors. Sponsorship also demonstrates a commitment to GCI and its objectives. GCI would like to thank the silver sponsor for both Southeast Asia events.

Corporate Sponsorship Levels and Benefits

Corporate sponsorships are designed to offer U.S. companies and organizations a flexible method of participation in the initiative and promote their capabilities to the appropriate target audiences throughout 2008. Sponsorship levels are differentiated by the tier of recognition and the number of events at which the sponsor chooses to participate. The five events include: (1) Senior-Level Policy Dialogues for Southeast Asia, (2) Senior-Level Policy Dialogues for Mexico, (3) Workshop in Brazil (4) Workshop in Mexico, (5) Workshop in Vietnam.

GCI is designed to be flexible and innovative, maximizing its impact with private sector partners. U.S. companies with relevant capabilities that wish to host a delegation during the orientation visits or wish to participate in the initiative as an event speaker, trainer, provider of training material or other in-kind participation, should contact Pamela Peseux at (301) 776-6509.
