was pleased to convene experts at the intersection of higher education, public, non-profit, and private sectors.

The panels explored how international education contributes to the U.S. economy not only through jobs directly related to international exchange, but through the economic spillover effects for cities, states, the tourism and services industry, as well as the talent pool and innovation brought about by international exchange participants.

The event concluded by recognizing Congresswoman Nita Lowey and Stephen Lowey for their decades of work and commitment to international educational exchange.
