CHAIR’S MESSAGE

World Trade:

Strengthening Global Strategies Facebook, Amazon, Apple … three di� erent companies, yet all operate in the same global environment. Without a focus on the global economy, none of these companies would be where they are today.

The Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce’s World Trade Week (WTW) is intended to highlight the importance of participating in global trade. Because as global trade goes, so too goes the world, your city, your business and your neighborhood.

Less than fi ve percent of the world’s population lives in the United States. From a sales and marketing perspective, would you only shop in fi ve percent of the stores? Would you like to showcase your products in only a fi ve percent market share? Would you be comfortable with 95 percent of all markets unavailable to your products and services? The obvious answer is “no.” Yet, only one percent of U.S. businesses export to other countries as a source of revenue.

When WTW became a concept in 1926 and received President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s support in 1933, the U.S. enjoyed its greatest expansion of growth in history. Beginning in World War II and extending into the present, participating in global trade has benefi tted every industry.

Today, American-made goods and services are still the most highly sought-after products in the world. Expanding the U.S.’ footprint means expanding global trade. WTW is here to educate, promote and encourage U.S. businesses to gain the knowledge necessary to strengthen their global strategies and begin taking advantage of the other 95 percent.

I encourage you to participate in WTW. The more you know the more you grow, whether as a business and as an individual. Your involvement makes the di� erence.

I am honored to be this year’s WTW Chair. And, I want to commend the L.A. Area Chamber for its continued support of WTW and its clear understanding of how important L.A. is to global trade and investment.

The Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce has long understood and appreciated the global nature of business. More than 86 years ago, the L.A. Area Chamber foresaw the need for an event that would create stronger connections and mutual benefi ts for a burgeoning worldwide business community.

In 1926, the Chamber created World Trade Week, and through the years it became so successful that in 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed into law a national observance of World Trade Week.

As the voice of business since 1888, the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce’s mission has been to help its members grow by promoting collaboration and seeking full prosperity for the Los Angeles region. The Chamber has added to its role by responding to today’s challeng-ing and technologically advanced global marketplace. As a trustee for the current and future welfare of the region, the Chamber champions economic prosperity and quality of life.

Celebrating a month of world trade in May

The original week-long observance has now grown to more than 30 events held each year throughout the month of May in the Southern California area. The events promote the positive economic aspects of international trade on the local community through face-to-face dialogues and forums for ideas.

World Trade Week continues to promote trade through the following:

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS u Career guidebook u High school educational briefi ngs u Congressional outreach u Scholarships u University research projects

WORLD TRADE WEEK INFO GUIDEThe World Trade Week Info Guide is published each year and includes a directory of Southern California trade-related o� ces and organizations and current statistics on the value of world trade to the region.

The Chamber serves a diverse membership of businesses of every size, from more than 35 industries in every community across L.A. County. Currently, the Chamber represents more than 1,600 members and more than 650,000 employees.

Each year, the Chamber delivers... u More than 40,000 referrals to member companies u 300 business and professional development events u More than 25 policy and signature events u More than 100 graduates participating in leadership programs u More than 10,000 jobs and internships for L.A. youth

WORLD TRADE WEEK AWARD WINNERS

Joseph A. Czyzyk

Czyzyk was born in Poland, the son of Holocaust survivors. He traveled to Europe as a toddler and grew up in Canada. He moved with his parents to the United States when he was 16 years old and became a U.S. citizen.

Czyzyk has visited nearly 100 nations and has established business operations in more than 45 countries during his career,

which started in the airline industry. He joined Mercury Air Group, Inc. in 1984 to establish the company’s cargo division. As chairman of the board, he privatized the company in 2006, after nearly three decades on the American Stock Exchange. Additionally, with extensive travels to every part of the globe and with a special emphasis on South America, Asia and the Middle East, Czyzyk’s deep international relationships have allowed Mercury to expand far beyond its Los Angeles headquarters.

Civic activism has been a cornerstone of Czyzyk’s career. He was the 2011 Board chair of the L.A. Area Chamber and is a past president of the City of Los Angeles Board of Taxicab Commissioners, having served on the Commission since its inception in 1998 until his retirement in 2008. He has had the distinction of having served as a city commissioner under the last three consecutive L.A. mayors and is treasurer of the Homeland Security Advisory Council. With the Pepperdine University Graduate School of Public Policy, he sits on the Board of Visitors and is chair of the Campaign Committee.

Czyzyk is a decorated U.S. veteran, having volunteered for two tours of duty (1966-1969) with the U.S. Navy Mobile Construction Battalion (Seabees) in the U.S. and the Republic of Vietnam. He is a proud board member of the CEC/Seabee Historical Foundation, helping to carry on the Seabees’ “can do” tradition. Czyzyk also serves as a member of the U.S. VETS board of directors.

WORLD TRADE WEEK AWARD WINNERS

Euro VAT Refund, Inc

Euro VAT Refund, Inc is a leading United States fi nancial services company specializing in assisting North American companies with value added tax (VAT) management, registration and refunds when conducting business internationally. Its clients are many Fortune 500 corporations as well as small- and medium-sized companies that trade internationally. Euro VAT Refund’s experts also frequently advise trade specialists within the U.S. departments of commerce, European embassies, consulates and trade o� ces in U.S. logistic companies and conference organizers.

In 2010, during the economic downturn, Euro VAT Refund assisted American companies in recovering and avoiding over $50 million in VAT expenses, equivalent to some 1,000 new or saved employment opportunities.

Euro VAT Refund is particularly proud of successful intervention in 1999 when the German government proposed introducing a new law that would stop VAT refunds to U.S. companies. Through an early alert to the Department of Commerce in Washington, D.C., the U.S. government was able to intervene and with Euro VAT Refund’s assistance, provide an o� cial protest to Germany. Consequently, Germany did not change its laws and the substantial VAT refunds of many millions of dollars continue annually.
