ABOUT CONECT

While many national organizations exist to further the interests of specific sectors of the international trade community, there is only one effective political voice for New England businesses which are dependent upon international trade.

The Coalition of New England Companies for Trade (CONECT) is comprised of manufacturers, traders, importers, exporters, customs brokers, freight forwarders, NVOCCs, transportation providers, financial institutions, law firms, accounting firms, and consultants active in international trade.
