Brad Harse Assists with Governor Heineman's "Reverse Trade Mission"
September 2008
BCC Principal and Western Region manager R. Brad Harse was recently asked to assist with Nebraska Governor Dave Heineman’s ambitious in-state trade mission (RTM) which hosted more than 130 business visitors from eight countries in early September.
Harse was asked to lead discussions with groups from Brazil and China on matters relating to establishing business relationships in Nebraska, merger and acquisition opportunities and alternative investment opportunities, including joint ventures, venture capital options and investment banking.
The RTM was highly successful on many fronts, including the signing of multiple memorandums of understanding, extensive dialogs between business entities on joint ventures, potential acquisitions and business start-ups in the state and new collaborations between local and foreign businesses.
The event was sponsored by the Nebraska Department of Economic Development (DED), the Nebraska Diplomats, and the University of Nebraska, with additional support from a network of 22 businesses and organizations.
