Meridian Sponsors Trade Winds Trade Mission

Meridian Finance Group is proud to be a sponsor of the International Trade Administration’s 2022 Trade Winds trade mission to the Middle East and Africa. Scheduled for early March, Trade Winds will be the largest U.S. government-led trade mission next year.

The trade mission will open with a business development forum in Dubai UAE. Organized by the U.S. Commercial Service, Trade Winds will feature meetings with U.S. commercial diplomats from over 20 countries in the Middle East, North Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa, topical and illuminating conference programs, and plenty of networking. The registration fee for the forum is $750 per attendee.

U.S. exporters participating in the trade mission can customize their experience by scheduling optional business-to-business matchmaking meetings with pre-screened buyers, agents, distributors, and joint-venture partners in the United Arab Emirates (March 8) as well as Algeria, Israel, Morocco, and Qatar (March 2-3) and Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Egypt (March 9-10). The registration fee for this option, which includes the business development forum and one mission stop, is $2,200 for the first company representative ($4,200 for companies with over 500 employees) and $500 for each additional company representative. The registration fee for each additional mission stop is $1,200.
