APEC Big Sky Resort Montana 2011

Second Senior Officials Meeting (SOM II) in Big Sky Resort, MT
May 7, 2011 to May 21, 2011

The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum is the premier economic organization in the Asia-Pacific region. Established in 1989 by 12 economies, including the United States, APEC fosters growth and prosperity by facilitating economic cooperation and expanding trade and investment throughout the region.

APEC’s 21 member economies today account for 55 percent of global GDP, purchase 58 percent of U.S. goods exports, and comprise a market of 2.7 billion consumers. Seven of America’s top 15 trade partners are in APEC.
The United States will host APEC in 2011 for the first time since 1993.  Big Sky Resort is excited to be the host venue for SOM II.  This is an honor for the State of Montana and our property and we look forward to providing a world class experience to all attendees.  Thank you Senator Bacus and your staff for making this possible.
