At the beginning of each year, the National U.S.-Arab Chamber of Commerce (NUSACC) coordinates a networking and business
development tour to the United States for high tech professionals from the Arab world. The tour revolves around two “must-do” events for Information & Communication Technology and Consumer Electronics professionals from the Arab world: the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) and a visit to Silicon Valley.
This is a unique opportunity for high tech professionals in the Arab world. Delegation members will:
- Attend the International CES (Las Vegas, NV), the largest trade show in the United States
- Network with global ICT professionals in Silicon Valley (San Francisco & San Jose, CA)
- Participate in business‐to‐business networking
- Identify new products for purchase
- Learn about emerging ICT technologies
- Visit leading ICT companies in Silicon Valley
High tech professionals from the Arab world are invited to participate in this excellent business opportunity. Space in the delegation is limited and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. To maximize networking and matchmaking efforts, each delegate will be expected to provide information to NUSACC about his/her company and business development interests as early as possible.
The fee for participating in the roadshow is $1,000 per person for registration and $1,000 per person for travel between Las Vegas and Silicon Valley. The participation fee covers all registrations and logistical support in the two U.S. destinations, as well as travel between the two destinations on NUSACC's chartered plane. The fee does not include expenses related to visas, airfare to and from the United States, meals, or lodging. Delegates who do not complete the roadshow are not entitled to a refund.
