Trade missions
Cities are responsible for their own “thriving and surviving” in the new global economy. Kansas City’s Trade Mission Program helps Kansas City connect, communicate and compete more directly, creatively and effectively with the global marketplace. Both inbound and outbound missions strengthen Kansas City’s international base.
