The Dominican Republic will host the 5th Americas Competitiveness Forum, it was announced at the event taking place this year in Atlanta, Georgia. The event will be held in November 2011. The Americas Competitiveness Forum is an event where leaders from 34 countries in the Western Hemisphere meet to exchange knowledge on issues and challenges facing the world today. The event is supported by the US Department of Commerce.
The ACF is promoted as "the preeminent economic and commercial event in the Americas, attracting approximately 1,000 participants from the Western Hemisphere's public and private sector, including heads of state, ministers of economy, commerce, trade and industry, and leaders from academia, civil society and business".
The ACF is a unique blend of policy dialogue on competitiveness, combined with business-to-business promotion and business-to-government interaction. The idea for the ACF was born following the 2005 Summit of the Americas where several countries expressed interest in convening a high-level, sustained regional dialogue on competitiveness issues.
