The Florida chapter of IERG meets periodically a few times a year at various Florida locations, which vary depending on the featured theme and/or speaker. Live meetings range from networking events to platforms for respected speakers on current business and foreign affairs as well as other topics related to global business and career development. The Florida chapter also sponsors joint meetings with selected executive groups sharing an interest in international business.
Most live meetings of the Florida chapter of IERG (IERGFL) are held in the greater Miami area idue to the greater concentration of members there. However, IERGFL sometimes sponsors meetings at other major location, such as the Orlando and Tampa Bay areas, as opportunities arise and as requested by members.
In addition, throughout the year IERGFL conducts meetings with members on-line, through webcasts, and by telephone conference calls. At each meeting, time is allocated for inter-member networking, a key component of IERG’s value creation.
While IERGFL retains a broad interest in all international business affairs, it also has strong natural focus on business in Latin/South America and the
Caribbean.
The Florida chapter encourages members to develop their own “Personal Board of Directors”, an individual network of advice and counsel drawn from business peers. This approach offers:
-
A Florida source of global contacts and referrals
-
Current information and perspectives on critical regional, national, and international issues
-
Career support and a vast international knowledge base for resources and services.
IERGFL is continuously forming value-added strategic relationships with:
-
Leading international executive groups and in?uencers
-
International and government agencies (Federal, State, & City as well as foreign entities).
-
Non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and prominent industry leaders, and associations with a special emphasis on key Florida and South America industry clusters such as Banking, Finance, Venture Capital, Bio-Tech, Healthcare, Life Sciences, Consumer Products, Major Retail, Education, and Technology.
IERGFL engages with senior expert resources in the key industry sectors and others.
