About CMBC
The Canada-Minnesota Business Council (CMBC) was incorporated in 1994 and over the years has been a well attended and useful networking and speaker’ forum for the Minnesota business community. It reflects the size, complexity and dynamism of Canada-Minnesota business links. In 2008 the volume of two-way merchandise trade reached USD $20 billion, complemented by a substantial flow of people, services, investment, and R&D cooperation.
