Description
Becoming a global city – that welcomes international commerce and empowers local entrepreneurs to build connections abroad - starts with building on a human level. See how International Relations Manager Alexis Gordon plays a key role in establishing those worldwide relationships.

A
To
be
an
international
City
isn't
just
about
the
place.
It's
about
the
people.
We
have
the
people
here.
We
have
people
that
are
entrepreneurs
that
are
starting
businesses
and
selling
things
all
over
the
world.
We
have
people
that
are
coming
here
from
other
countries
that
are
bringing
their
ideas,
I
love
that
I
can
work
with
counterparts
in
other
countries
and
even
just
within
our
region,
to
find
out
what
they're
doing
to
be
globally
competitive.
A
We
have
a
lot
of
intergovernmental
relations
that
we
have
a
broad,
so
we
have
things
like
Sister,
Cities,
Sister
Cities
really
focus
on
citizen
diplomacy,
but
they
are
a
real
agreement
between
governments
that
we
will
encourage
our
citizenry
to
connect
with
each
other,
and
so
we
help
make
sure
that
those
are
healthy
relationships
and
help
make
connections
here
and
abroad.
We
also
partner
locally
with
international
house,
world
affairs,
council
and
the
chamber
and
the
regional
partnership.
