Once again, the American Hungarian Chamber of Commerce in New York is organizing a special and very important event with the Budapest Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
The event will be without a doubt the most significant public press event of the retrospective period in the Hungarian-American Chamber of Commerce, and will feature a roundtable discussion between the Republican and Democratic Senators of the State of New Jersey and the leaders of the Hungarian foreign economic institutions.
This will be followed by presentations on trade relations between the two countries by representatives of the New Jersey Association of Commerce and Industry (CIANJ) and New Jersey City University (NJCU).
After the presentations, business representatives who are present in person will have the opportunity to consult with members of the delegation and speakers from CIANJ and NJCU.
