The World Trade Center Delaware’s  president Carla Stone has been invited to join the World Bank Group’s Private Sector Liaison Officer (PSLO) network. This voluntary network, which comprises over 150 business intermediary organizations in more than 95 countries, is designed to facilitate the World Bank Group’s engagement with the private sector. 
  
“This network is just one example of the many resources that World Trade Center Delaware brings to the region,” said Carla Stone.  “ I am very honored to join the World Bank Group’s PSLO Network. I look forward to partnering with the Bank to help Delaware-based companies better understand how they can tap into procurement opportunities of World Bank-financed projects and hopefully expand business opportunities for the region.”

 

The role of the PSLO includes: facilitating local companies’ contact with the World Bank Group (WBG) and other international financial institutions; providing the WBG with insights on how to better engage companies on development issues; and disseminating WBG knowledge and research that may be of interest to the private sector.

 

 World Trade Center Delaware will organize a number of events on behalf of its members, local companies and partners with the support of the WBG, including:

  • -Business Opportunities Seminars: presentations on how the different institutions within the WBG operate and how their work may offer potential opportunities for the private sector. 
  • -Joint private sector delegations  to WBG headquarters in Washington, D.C.
  • -Business Missions to the Field: joint delegations of companies to WBG client countries including meetings with WBG country offices, government agencies, and business-to business meetings with local companies.
