THE Trinidad and Tobago Chamber of Industry and Commerce (TT Chamber) and the St Kitts and Nevis Chamber of Industry and Commerce on June 16 formalised a significant step forward in regional economic collaboration with the signing of a trade and business development alliance agreement.

In a release, the TT Chamber said the signing was conducted virtually, led by chamber president Sonji Pierre-Chase and her counterpart Trevor Blake from the St Kitts and Nevis Chamber.

"This agreement with the St Kitts and Nevis Chamber is more than symbolic. It is a strategic partnership rooted in mutual respect and shared goals. St Kitts and Nevis has demonstrated strong leadership in regional tourism, financial services and entrepreneurship. We see immense potential for synergies in those areas," Pierre-Chase said. "Through this alliance, we aim to foster direct business linkages, catalyse joint ventures and deepen business relations that deliver tangible value to our members and contribute to the broader economic integration of the Caricom region."
