ABOUT THE USSC ANNUAL FORUMS
Since 1995, the United States – Spain Council and the Fundación Consejo España – Estados Unidos meet annually, alternating between the United States and Spain at a Forum to discuss salient topics pertaining to trade, defense, investment, economic growth, the role of Spain in the European Union, technology, immigration, and energy. These meetings invite speakers from the highest levels of government in both countries, experts in fields of particular interest, academia, as well as major financial institutions and industrial companies worldwide.
This Forum often includes triangulation meetings, as both Council and Consejo member organizations have strong investments and ties with Latin America.
