Organizations and Businesses

The Philadelphia region is home to hundreds of non-profit organizations, civic and professional associations, and public agencies dedicated to connecting the region to the rest of the world and enhancing its international reputation.  

Whether it's an international development agency working on behalf of women's rights in Afghanistan or teaching sustainable agricultural techniques in Africa, an association of citizens organized in support of the goals of the United Nations, a chapter of the International Visitors Council dedicated to citizen diplomacy, or a chamber of commerce focused on promoting business ties with South America, you can find it here.

From multi-national corporations to neighborhood restaurants specializing in ethnic and regional cuisine; from law and accounting firms that handle cross-border transactions every day to a busy port that ships a world of goods; from airlines serving both Asia and Europe to a pharmaceutical industry that spans the globe; and from international investors to small-to-medium businesses that import and export goods of every kind, the Greater Philadelphia business community is one of the keys to the region’s vibrant international character.

Hospitality and Tourism

The Quaker founders of Philadelphia famously built no fortifications around their new city, and the local government continued to oppose constructing a fort or raising a militia when the Spanish and French threatened the region in the 1740s. But in the 1770s the British ordered the fortification of the largest and most important city in their North American colonies, and the result is this remarkable piece of eighteenth-century military engineering, built on what was then called Mud Island, where the Schuylkill flows into the Delaware.
