USMCA: International Perspectives, Possibilities, and Preparing for What’s Next

Last month, our USMCA webinar series kicked off with a look at where the agreement stands and what’s at stake for North Carolina businesses. Now we’re widening the lens. With the agreement’s future still taking shape, how our neighbors in Mexico and Canada view the road ahead matters just as much as what’s happening in Washington. Session two brings those voices directly to you, offering a rare chance to hear how our largest trading partners are approaching the negotiations and what that could mean for your bottom line.

*Open to all interested stakeholders, regardless of NC Chamber membership.
