Welcome From The President of BABC Arizona |
|
Welcome to the Arizona Affiliate of the British American Business Council (BABC).
On behalf of the entire board of directors I would like to introduce you to the revitalized BABC Arizona. As newly elected President I am looking forward to the next year and our plan to develop the organization into the premier business group in Arizona for companies interested in the UK market or working with businesses from the UK. Our plans are to provide timely, relevant and value added business sessions on topics that aim to help you with your business in either Arizona or the UK along with opportunities to network with fellow professionals. We are working on our website to include guides on how to do business in Britain and for it to become a portal for informational resources. We are working with the UK Consulate in Los Angeles, and the Honary British Consul for Arizona to develop resources for our members to gain access to UK government information and business assistance. The national BABC organization has developed an excellent reputation with the US Government; the Hon. Robert H. Tuttle, United States Ambassador (UK) recently wrote to Sir David Manning, Her Majesty’s Ambassador to the United States stating; “The BABC has fully earned our support, and we look forward to continuing to work closely with the organization to build its further success in the future.” When you become a member of BABC Arizona there are a wide range of benefits accessible to you, which enable both individuals and corporate level members to maximize their investment through networking events, learning sessions and on-line resources. Readily available are referrals and introductions to our wide range of professional members in addition to the 30 other BABC chapters throughout the US. I am delighted to be President of BABC Arizona at this exciting time in the organizations development and intend to work hard to fulfill the commitment I have made to the organization. With the election of our new Board of Directors and the continuity of returning Directors, I feel confident that our team has a great vision and we will continue to make great progress toward our goals. I look forward to seeing you at future BABC Arizona events. We are here for our members and we want to hear from you with questions, ideas, comments and concerns. Please feel free to contact us, join us and participate in the group.
