Being involved with MITA, I have met a variety of professionals involved in international trade. I have built in-depth relationships through meaningful conversations with members and guests. Each event offers opportunities to discuss, observe, and debate complex issues. At MITA events I feel the warmth and uniqueness of the American Midwest business culture. It gives me a strong sense that “I belong”.
