Venezuela Working Group
Venezuela Working Group
The Venezuela Working Group (VWG) leverages AS/COA’s corporate constituency to provide a unique forum for a constructive, hands-on conversation on Venezuela. The VWG navigates Venezuela’s changing economic and political landscape by convening key national and international stakeholders from the public, private, and social sectors to better understand the country’s present challenges and future political and economic scenarios. Our programs include high-level private and public meetings and discussions.
The VWG is open to and currently includes AS/COA corporate, Chairman’s International Advisory Council, Board of Directors, and President’s Circle members.
