We are pleased to announce that Allison Vulgamore, president and chief executive officer of The Philadelphia Orchestra will provide opening remarks at our upcoming Philadelphia International Showcase reception, which will be held from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on September 11, 2012 at the Wells Fargo Bank Lobby on South Broad Street in Philadelphia.

Ms. Vulgamore has been instrumental in sharing The Philadelphia Orchestra as cultural ambassador with the world and helping to increase awareness of the Greater Philadelphia region as a world-class city and international tourism destination. In June, The Philadelphia Orchestra visited China for its 2012 Residency Week and Tour. This pilot Residency Week initiative laid the ground work for what culminated in the signing of a five-year commitment to co-create future Residency programs with cities and provinces throughout China.

Please join us for Philadelphia International Showcase. This event is the region’s leading international business reception and networking opportunity. Showcase brings together the international business, diplomatic, and academic communities, to celebrate the international vitality of the region.

In addition to local business leaders, government officials, and representatives from the region’s economic development organizations, Pennsylvania’s Authorized Trade Representatives from around the globe will be in attendance, to informally discuss business opportunities in their respective markets.
