BOULDER, CO – Boulder will be in the world spotlight July 23-27 when Friendship Force International brings about 400 international visitors to attend its 2019 World Conference, offering numerous opportunities for Boulder Chamber members to develop international business ties and attract customers to their businesses.
“We are really excited about the mutually-beneficial opportunities during our World Conference when Boulder businesses can benefit from attracting visiting customers and we can share the mission and vision of FFI for a more peaceful world,” said Jeremi Snook, President and CEO of Friendship Force International
FFI will soon be announcing opportunities for Boulder Chamber members to sponsor various events, activities and materials in order to generate positive visibility and potential sales among the more than 400 international visitors.
Announcements of potential sponsorships will be made in coming weeks on the Boulder Chamber website. To facilitate community and business interaction, Friendship Force International has joined the Boulder Chamber.

Friendship Force’s last biennial World Conference was held in Manchester, England in 2017.
