Spotlighting Philadelphia's Immigrant Workforce

Presented in Partnership with the World Affairs Council and The Welcoming Center

Join us for an important GPLEX360 session where we continue the conversation initiated in San Diego about the significance of immigrant communities in driving economic and cultural growth. As Philadelphia re-emerges as a gateway city for immigrant groups, we have a pivotal opportunity to harness this momentum and shape the future of our city.

This event will delve into the role of immigrants in Philadelphia's economy and explore actionable steps employers and the business community can take to foster workforce integration. Through an engaging mix of networking and programming, we’ll discuss innovative strategies to break down barriers, create opportunities, and embrace the diverse talents that enrich our city.

Whether you’re a business leader, policymaker, or community advocate, this session is a chance to connect, share ideas, and collaborate on how to leverage Philadelphia’s immigrant workforce as a cornerstone of its economic and cultural prosperity. Let’s work together to make Philadelphia a leading model of inclusion and growth.

This event will include food and refreshments along with programming.
