Glasgow Chamber of Commerce (GCoC) has been establishing a number of strategic agreements with chambers in cities and regions around the world where there are opportunities for collaboration between member companies. This includes New York, Milan and Nuremberg with a number of others agreements in development.

n order to develop the practical business benefits from these strategic relationships, GCOC are organising a series of visits to enable businesses to investigate new markets and international business opportunities. GCOCs aim is to ensure that businesses in Scotland gain access to international markets and establish collaborative commercial relationships to support profitable business growth.

The chamber is recruiting growth-oriented ambitious businesses to participate in their second visit to New York in March 2018 in partnership with Manhattan Chamber of Commerce (MCoC). Glasgow and Manhattan Chambers of Commerce are committed to assisting with this process in a direct and results-focused way. The core feature of the Make it in Manhattan visit will be business to business meetings. These will be arranged through a business matching process conducted by Manhattan Chamber of Commerce (MCoC). The visit will also give participating businesses formal and informal opportunities to network and acquire valuable contacts.

Benefits of Make it in Manhattan

Glasgow Chamber of Commerce & Manhattan Chamber of Commerce will be providing a business to business matching service between Scottish & Manhattan businesses. The business matching service will provide a minimum of 3 business to business meetings with interested parties held in central Manhattan. Manhattan Chamber of Commerce will be hosting a ‘Doing Business in New York’ information session that will give the participating businesses key insight into the practice of Manhattan businesses.
