AMERICAN-HELLENIC CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the Thessaloniki International
Fair 2018. The United States are returning to the Fair this year as the
honored country and the American Hellenic Chamber of Commerce is
very proud to organize once again the American Pavilion.

Under the broader theme of "Harnessing the Power of Innovation and
Creativity", USATIF2018 will showcase American technology,
enterprise and innovation to an elite audience in southeast Europe of
Government and Political Leaders, Decision-Makers and Influencers,
Entrepreneurs, ‘doers’ and 300.000 consumers, professionals and
buyers.

The participation of America’s corporate elite in the Pavilion and the
arrival of a high-level governmental delegation led by the Secretary of
Commerce W. Ross, accompanied by business leaders and investors, is expected to focus international
attention to Greece. The presence of state and business delegations from neighboring countries is
expanding the American interest for the region, confirms Greece as a pillar of stability and the center
of SE Europe and establishes TIF as the major commercial and business event in the whole area.
In order to enrich the experience of the visitors to corporate and cultural America, the Chamber has
also set up a parallel program of interesting and well-focused events, throughout the duration of the
Fair, either at the Stage Theatre within the US Pavilion or in other venues within the Expo Center.

We wish to thank you all for your participation to USATIF2018 that is promoting American business
in Greece and serves to increase the country’s prospects for a successful post memoranda course.

Simos Anastasopoulos
President
American-Hellenic Chamber
of Commerce
