The Mayor’s Office on Asian and Pacific Islander Affairs has been working closely with Washington, DC Economic Partnership (WDCEP) on translating its Doing Business in DC Guide Book into Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese to address the needs of the API business community. This project was made possible with the support of Mayor Adrian Fenty through his Deputy Mayor’s Office on Planning and Economic Development. It is first time the guide book has expanded to address the API community, demonstrating the District’s commitment to inclusivity. These translated guide books are an essential source for anyone interested in opening or doing business in the District.
On January 28th, the WDCEP will be releasing these highly anticipated Asian editions of Doing Business in DC Guide Book at a book release event. Please join us for this event.
