The Ministry of Investment, Trade and Commerce (MITC) through its statutory body, the Belize Trade and Investment Development Service (BELTRAIDE), along with several of its key regional and private sector partners, is teaming up to host a virtual Competitiveness Month 2020.

These webinars will be held in conjunction with partners such as Caribbean Export Development Agency, Caribbean Association of Investment Promotion Agencies, Inter-American Development Bank, Belize Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the US Embassy, Economic Development Council, the Development Finance Corporation, and other private sector partners.
These webinars are geared toward promoting opportunities that can ensure social, environmental, and economic business survival during and post COVID-19. Topics include:
