OUR TEAM
Select Chester County serves as the main facilitator of international business for Chester County. The Global Business Advisory Board, composed of 28 experts in international business, helps direct these efforts. Our focus includes providing assistance to foreign companies seeking to locate or expand into Chester County as well as helping local businesses expand into foreign markets. One of our key programs is the Chester County China Initiative (CCCI). Launched in 2013, the CCCI builds relationships with Chinese businesses and government representatives to attract Chinese investment and promote our homegrown businesses, products, and educational institutions to Chinese markets.
