Note from World Trade Center

We hope all of our readers, your families and colleagues are staying safe and well.

Like most of you, we are doing our best to stay on top of news and information on the spread of the coronavirus.

We participated in a "town hall" conference call this week with the World Trade Centers Association to learn about the impacts of the virus around the globe. Many WTCs are working remotely, as are we, in an effort to continue to support their member businesses. We also received an update on the impacts of COVID-19 in China and the recovery outlook for some businesses in the region.

Both the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County have established webpages dedicated to providing the public with the latest information and resources re COVID-19 in the St. Louis region.
