Of particular interest is the last FAQ:
With the memories of 9/11 still in the public’s mind, what efforts have been made to continue the growth of the WTC brand? What has been the WTC story across the world since then?
The horrific events that unfolded on September 11, 2001 destroyed the physical structures that were the birthplace and the home of the World Trade Centers Association for the first 30 years of its existence, and resulted in the senseless loss of thousands of innocent lives. Instead of retreating from international trade though, the WTCA and global commerce have continued on a path of exponential growth since September 2001. In fact, over 75 cities around the world have carefully evaluated the World Trade Center concept since 2001 and have made the decision to establish a World Trade Center in their communities. They did this to empower and further advantage the businesses that make up their economies to be successful in the global marketplace. They did this as evidence of their commitment to brand themselves as a global city and to make themselves full and viable competitors in the increasingly global marketplace.
WTCA is projecting continued, measured growth in markets such as China, India and Brazil and the application of the WTC concept in cities large and small around the globe in the upcoming years. The future looks very bright for World Trade Centers because more and more companies and communities realize that in order to be relevant and viable in the future, they must compete successfully in international markets. World Trade Centers are proven to serve that growing need based on forty years of success.
