Business Opportunities Seminar presented by: Asian Development Bank (ADB)
Join us in partnership with the Asian Development Bank’s North American Representative Office (ADB NARO) on Friday, February 27th, 2026, for a dynamic Business Opportunities Seminar designed exclusively for U.S. companies ready to expand into fast growing markets across Asia and the Pacific.
Why U.S. Companies Should Work with the ADB
- Access to a Multi‑Billion‑Dollar Project Pipeline: ADB invests heavily across Asia and Pacific with an annual average pipeline of $35-$40 billion of lending a year, creating significant opportunities for U.S. firms to participate in fast-growing emerging markets
- Transparent, Rules‑Based Procurement: ADB’s procurement system is fair, open, and competitive—giving U.S. companies a level playing field and reducing the risks often associated with entering emerging markets
- Strategic Entry Point to Asia and the Pacific: Working with the ADB helps U.S companies establish credibility, visibility, and relationships in one of the fastest growing economies in the world
