Going into its eight year, and with the continuing collaboration from the United Nations, the U.S. State Department, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the C3 US-Arab Business Summit will again be held at The Union League Club in New York City

On Monday, September 24, 2018, the C3 US-Arab Business Summit, in collaboration with the UN General Assembly, will focus on "Moving Healthcare, Commerce and Philanthropy Beyond Bilateral Borders." More than 60 global business leaders will address an international delegation of 500 attendees on promoting and improving U.S. and Arab initiatives in order to strengthen security and business relations between the regions. For these reasons, the C3 US-Arab Business Summit is a ‘must-attend’ meeting for anyone looking to embrace global integration to create exceptional bilateral value in a commercial capacity.

C3 US-Arab Summit 2018 Agenda  (see below)  

As noted in the agenda (subject to change), topics offer sponsors and attendees a wide range of important insights. Ranging from public healthcare challenges such as the shortage of trained professionals to the impact of diversity and equality on a progressive Middle East, our 2018 Summit will continue to focus on facilitatiing partnerships. By fostering a better understanding of the power of collaboration between each region, as well as with other nations that lie beyond our bilateral borders, we are continuing our efforts to elevate critical discussions that lead to sustainable solutions.
