CVI Announces Its Charter Membership of Virginia International Trade Alliance (VITAL)
CVI is pleased to announce its charter membership of the Virginia International Trade Alliance (VITAL). The alliance is a coalition comprised of companies across the Commonwealth dedicated to the advancement of international trade and investment. The Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP) and the Virginia Port Authority (VPA) will support VITAL’s efforts by providing structure and staff assistance.
VITAL was created in response to Governor Kaine’s economic development strategic plan, rolled out in September 2006. That plan calls for a coordinated effort in international marketing to increase Virginia’s exports by seven percent by 2010, and increase foreign direct investment in the Commonwealth to 3,000 jobs and $300 million per year.
VITAL participants will serve as a central point for the development of a coordinated international marketing strategy, and will form task forces focused on key areas such as branding Virginia, emerging markets, foreign-owned companies, global logistics, mergers and acquisitions, policy, sales offices, service exports, and building stronger relations with the emerging markets of China and India.
Michael Coleman, president of CVI, serves on the global logistics task force.
