Patrick Wall, Senior Commercial Officer (SCO), American Embassy - Panama, is the luncheon speaker. Since 2000, Senior Officer Wall has been serving in Panama at the U.S. Embassy, heading up the U.S. & Foreign Commercial Service‘s efforts to expand exports of U.S. goods and services to Central America.

SCO Wall works to advance the Department’s trade initiatives in Panama, and has also served in Australia, Argentina and the Dominican Republic. The changing character of Latin America on all levels - economic, social and political - presents exciting opportunities for U.S. firms to export to this region. U.S. companies can take advantage of the services and programs of the U.S. & Foreign Commercial Service to receive one-on-one counseling, matchmaking services, advocacy, publications and customized market research reports.

SCO Wall will discuss the U.S. relationship with Panama, current trends in Panama and Central America, and challenges and opportunities for U.S. companies in the region. This is an excellent opportunity for businesses to learn first-hand about opportunities and conditions in Panama and Central America and where future trends are forecast.
