The Pan American Association of Philadelphia is excited to announce that it will hold its 83rd Annual Meeting and William J. Clothier II Memorial Award on October 15, 2024 at the Union League of Philadelphia.
We are pleased to announce Brian Winter, Editor-in-Chief of Americas Quarterly and Vice President of Policy at the Americas Society and Council of the Americas will be our Keynote Speaker.
The global economic and political landscape is rapidly evolving. Important recent and upcoming elections in the Americas, emerging near-shoring trends, and immigration issues, are reshaping trade, political relationships, and development strategies across the Americas. This shift presents both challenges and opportunities for countries throughout the hemisphere. During our upcoming luncheon, the Pan American Association of Philadelphia will explore their implications, including its potential to create new jobs, strengthen regional supply chains, and foster closer ties among nations of the Western Hemisphere.
Since its founding in 1940, the Association has been dedicated to promoting cultural, educational and economic activities to increase understanding and cooperation among the peoples of the Americas. The Association is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to advancing Pan-Americanism in the Greater Philadelphia region. Today, the region is home to more than 500,000 residents who trace their roots to Latin America, and the need for greater cultural understanding expressed by our founders has become even more relevant.
We expect an audience of more than 200 policymakers and leaders from business, cultural and academic institutions in the Greater Philadelphia region with an interest in Pan-Americanism. The event will begin at 11:30 AM with a networking reception followed by lunch at 12:00 PM.
