Hundreds of delegates are expected to gather and network, attend seminars on professional development and business management, strengthen on-going and new projects to benefit the community, and more.
This year’s convention marks the first of the new five-year period in Inter-America, and the second to be held in Jamaica since ASI’s establishment in the territory.
