Get Your Passports: Online Registration for USGC’s Summer Annual Meeting Opens Friday

The U.S. Grains Council (USGC) will open online registration for its 55th Annual Board of Delegates Meeting on Friday, May 15.

The meeting is scheduled for Montreal, Canada, from July 27-29, 2015, and will focus on emerging opportunities, competitive challenges and the Council’s work to increase U.S. market share. It will be packed with expert speakers, vibrant discussions and will conclude with elections for new officers and board members. The USGC Advisory Teams (A-Teams) will also spend time assessing the Council’s implementation of its 2015 operational plan, the Unified Export Strategy (UES). 

Member participation is essential to the Council’s success, and the Council expects all attendees will leave Montreal with a renewed focus on the global awareness and global connections that are necessary for the Council’s work abroad.
