Last week, we hosted a Meridian International Center delegation from Pakistan. They went to the Maryland Center for History & Culture to learn about the institution’s unique approach to preserving and sharing Maryland’s rich history. During their visit, the delegation explored the Claire McCardell exhibit, toured the virtual field trip studio, and marveled at treasures like the original Star-Spangled Banner manuscript. They also discussed important topics such as digitization, community engagement, and educational programming. MCHC’s commitment to preserving history while embracing innovation is truly inspiring. #GlobalEngagement #IVLP #WTCIGE

World Trade Center Institute does it again with an incredible event, turnout, and panel at Maryland State of the Ports! The only complaint I have is that I couldn’t be at two breakout sessions at the same time but I witnessed a very impressive panel with Houston Mason Vicki Juel Isaksen Vaishali Patel moderated by Nexterus President Ryan Polakoff discussing the challenges, predictions, initiatives, complexities, and the unknowns in the logistics and supply chain world. Hearing from leaders in different industries was especially interesting and 2025 looks to be an exciting year, despite there still being uncertainties. As far as the event…. Great food, great people, great atmosphere and an overall great experience! Regretfully, I had to leave during the middle of the State of the Ports Address but I’m confident I’ll get feedback from my colleagues. Thanks again and proud to be part of the Baltimore community and Nexterus enjoys our long standing partnership with WTCI! #ports #events #stateoftheports #supplychain #logistics #networking #workforce #economicoutlook #transportation #unity #community #worktogether
