Dear Members and Friends,

Together with our GACC colleagues from around the US and the IHK Frankfurt, we hosted the German American Business Forum this week in Frankfurt am Main. The in-depth discussions and workshops on marketing & sales, the IRA, and more provided practical strategies for German companies entering the US, and I was thankful for the many members and clients that shared their experiences with our 250+ strong audience.

Speaking of success: We're celebrating 60 years of fostering German American trade in the Midwest with our German American Business Awards Gala on October 13. It’ll be a night to remember at our spectacular new venue in Chicago! Reserve your table here, and keep an eye out for the Awards applications launching on our website next week - we'll have five exciting Awards categories this year.

It's been an insightful past few weeks of GACC Midwest, including our Expert Conference on Circular Economy and our Illinois Connection Series. And if you haven't seen it yet, check out a short recap of our Midwest SME Forum here.

Best regards,

Mark Tomkins
President & CEO
German American Chamber of Commerce of the Midwest
