On Monday, April 23, 2018, IIUSA hosted its 13th Annual Membership Meeting in Washington, D.C. prior to the start of the 11th Annual EB-5 Advocacy Conference. The event brought together industry professionals from around the world for 3 days of networking, business development and education panels.

IIUSA’s Annual Membership Meeting gave IIUSA members an opportunity to hear about the state of the association, accomplishments of committees and to have their voices heard through the election of Officers and Board of Directors. This important process for the association is a critical activity in which all members should participate to ensure the association is representing them in the best way possible.

All three Officers (President, Vice President, and Secretary-Treasurer) as well as five Director seats were up for election at this year’s Annual Meeting. We are excited to announce the re-election of our three Officers:

  • President: Robert Kraft, FirstPathway Partners
  • Vice-President: William Gresser, EB-5 New York State
  • Secretary-Treasurer: Stephen Strnisha, Cleveland International Fund)

Additionally, congratulations to the 5 members of the Board of Directors who were elected:

  • Joseph McCarthy, American Dream Fund
  • Al Rattan, Continental Regional Center
  • Dave Souders*, Todd & Associates
  • Abeteen Vaziri, Greystone EB-5
  • Cletus Weber*, Peng & Weber

We are honored to announce the new Board of Directors and are eager to work with them in the year ahead on all of the important business of the association!
