Dear Business Friends,

I am very pleased to have

the opportunity of address-

ing you in connection with

my working visit to the

United States of America, on

which I am accompanied by

a business mission organ-

ized by the Confederation of Industry of the Czech Republic.

This visit is a confi rmation of our interest in promoting mu-

tual relations in the area of economy and business.

After their very successful expansion to the demanding

market of the European Union, the presence in the United

States market is a very prestigious aim for Czech companies.

This is a market which shares similar values and trends in its

development, making it possible for Czech and American

trade partners to advance their mutual potential.

The high quality and business maturity of Czech companies

refl ect the fact that, in addition to their products and services,

they off er technical and technological collaboration and are

seeking subcontractors and partners for cooperation in their

projects and potential investments in the global market.

Technologies and working methods are continuously and

rapidly developing and improving, and we are keeping pace

with this trend. It is an honour for me to be accompanied on

my visit by some of the most successful visionaries of the

Czech economy, who, through their companies and by their

eff orts, hard work, and personal courage, are contributing

towards increasing the prosperity of our country.

I am confi dent that you will have the opportunity to be-

come acquainted with these companies, and not merely by

reading about them in this catalogue. I trust that we will all

take advantage of our business mission to strike up personal

contacts with the aim of achieving long-term and mutually

benefi cial collaboration.

I wish all of us the best of success in these endeavours.

Dear Ladies

and Gentlemen,

As Ambassador, I am hon-

ored and thrilled to be able

to highlight the importance

of Czech-US economic and

commercial relations and to

further facilitate economic

development and investment between our two allied na-

tions, specifi cally through the business mission led by the

Czech Minister of Industry and Trade, Mr Martin Kuba.

The mission comes on the heels of the second round of

the US-Czech Economic and Commercial Dialogue, which

was established in 2010 in order to focus on our countries‘

commitment to one another to advance and strengthen

commercial and trade ties and deepen the collaboration in

strategic economic areas.

I believe that this business mission will present and ease

such new opportunities for business, trade, research and

innovation, and potential Czech investment in the US. I

hope that the companies on both sides of the table will

take advantage of US trade incentives to create together

new jobs, which are much welcome in these hard econ-

omic times, and in turn foster continuous and robust

Czech-US cooperation into the future.

The Embassy of the Czech Republic and I remain ready to

assist both sides through our dedicated, economic diplo-

matic means.

Dear Friends,

It is an honor for me that the

Confederation of Industry

of the Czech Republic has

been entrusted with the

organisation of the Busi-

ness Mission to accompany

the Minister of Industry and

Trade, Mr Martin Kuba, on his working visit to the United

States of America.

The size of the delegation demonstrates the importance

attached by businessmen across the Czech economic spec-

trum to contacts in the American market. The USA is the thir-

teenth most important trade partner of the Czech Republic

and the export strategy of our government ranks it among

the twelve priority countries to which special attention is

paid in trade cooperation. In my opinion, however, the tre-

mendous potential for collaboration between the USA and

the Czech Republic is still waiting to be fully realized.

The main purpose of this Business Mission is to take advan-

tage of the working visit of this important member of the

Czech Government to support and promote bilateral eco-

nomic relations, to strengthen the already existing part-

nerships and to help establish new ones. I am confi dent

that, in view of the traditionally good relations between

our two countries, which share similar values, the current

visit will help establish long-lasting trade links.

The Czech Republic is a country with a long industrial

tradition, especially in the area of engineering, which has

built its competitiveness on development and innovation.

Czech fi rms export their products to the whole world.

Modern services, including the IT sector, are strongly re-

presented in their portfolio. Therefore, we see the USA not

only as an important export market, but also as a partner

for cooperation in third countries and in the area of foreign

investment.
