The Trade Mission will take place August 2-5 in Las Vegas, Nevada, in conjunction with the 2022 NGLCC International Business & Leadership Conference. This globally recognized conference is the largest 2SLGBTQI+ business event on the planet and delivers innovative leadership programming as well as networking and engagement opportunities, for more than 1,400 2SLGBTQI+ and allied business leaders. The event will take place at the Bellagio Hotel & Casino
The Trade Mission is open to all Canadian 2SLGBTQI+ owned enterprises certified (or eligible for certification) by CGLCC and looking to expand business opportunities in the USA.
