Invest Caribbean Founder to unveil 10-Point Plan to strengthen US-CARICOM Trade & Investment

Invest Caribbean founder and CEO, Felicia J. Persaud, is set to unveil a 10-Point agenda for the US and CARICOM tomorrow.

Persaud will be part of the lunch time chat series that will focus on the topic: ‘Strengthening CARICOM-U.S. Relations Through Trade And Investment.”

The event is presented by The Shridath Ramphal Center, (SRC), in collaboration with the US Embassy in Barbados and the University of the West Indies Cave Hill Campus, Barbados.

As the dust settles on the new Biden-Harris Administration, questions loom as to what a trade and investment agenda for CARICOM and the US will look like going forward.

David Lewis, vice president of the D.C.-based Manchester Trade Ltd, will present on the topic while Persaud will be the discussant.

The event will be moderated by Dr. Jan Yves Remy, deputy director of the SRC.
