47th GA 2016 hosted by WTC Algiers - THANK YOU!

May 01, 2016

ALGIERS, ALGERIA - An enormous thank you goes out to all WTC delegates who participated in the 47th WTCA General Assembly, hosted by World Trade Center Algiers from April 17-20, 2016. In attendance were more than 120 delegates representing 58 World Trade Centers from 28 countries, as well as representatives from local Algerian companies. 

Delegates received a warm welcome to Algiers on Sunday evening with a Welcome Reception on the picturesque Executive Rooftop of the El Aurassi hotel. The program that followed featured Member-focused sessions including a WTCA plenary update and innovation exchange presentations by five World Trade Center Members (Arkansas, Cyprus, Leeuwarden, Lyon, Taipei). Delegates were given ample networking opportunities through both the speed networking session and B2B matchmaking session attended by local companies. 

World Trade Center Algiers hosted a spectacular gala evening of dining and dancing at the historic El Djazair hotel on Tuesday evening. The event then wrapped up with an 'Algeria session', featuring two high-level panels of prominent Algerian government and business professionals representing multiple public and private sectors, followed by a tour of the Roman ruins of old Algiers.

STAY TUNED! A comprehensive post-event report will be released shortly.
