International trade is stronger when more voices, perspectives, and leaders are part of the conversation. 🤝
F**T is excited to partner with OWIT Toronto to help more women and diverse professionals grow, lead, and thrive in international trade.
Together, we’ll be creating more opportunities for practical learning, knowledge sharing, networking, and collaborative programming, all designed to support the people helping Canadian businesses move across borders and into global markets.
For F**T members, CITPs, OWIT Toronto members, and the broader trade community, this partnership means more ways to connect, build skills, and be part of a strong, inclusive international trade network.
We’re looking forward to what’s ahead and to working with OWIT Toronto to champion the professionals shaping the future of global business. 🌎
