Introducing the Newly-Elected Officers and Directors of IIUSA
On Tuesday, April 12, IIUSA hosted its 17th Annual Membership Meeting during the EB-5 Industry Forum in Orlando, FL. Over 200 members (250+ total attendees) joined the event. The meeting was our member’s annual opportunity to hear about the state of the association, the financial report, accomplishments of committees this past year, and other important organizational milestones.
This year’s event was particularly momentous as it came on the heels of the EB-5 Regional Center Program’s five-year reauthorization. Spirits were certainly high and the membership showed its continued commitment to advancing the association’s goals and to begin the planning for the long-term future of IIUSA and EB-5.
In addition to association updates, the meeting was the membership’s opportunity to hear from the candidates running for the IIUSA Officer and Director positions. We are pleased to be welcoming both new and returning faces to the IIUSA Board of Directors for the 2022-2023 year.
We look forward to working with all of our elected leaders, members, and partners in what promises to be a great year ahead for the industry. Additional information on our newly elected board members can be found below.
