We look forward to welcoming members, partners and guests to our Colorado Fall Reception for great cross-sector executive networking and insights from our featured speakers. We are grateful to our friends at Ogletree Deakins LLP for hosting us at their Denver office.

MAPLE Colorado programs celebrate and explore the significant economic ties that Colorado and Canada share together. For our fall reception, we have something very special for you. We are honoured to welcome back former Canadian Ambassador to the United States, the Honourable Derek Burney Sr for a fireside chat with MAPLE Colorado Executive Director Rob Mancey about post-election implications for Canada-U.S. trade and economic ties including for blue and red trade zones.

After cross-sector networking and an update on our MAPLE community from MAPLE Colorado Executive Director Rob Mancey, we are delighted to welcome Jamie Marr, an immigration attorney with our host organization, Ogletree Deakins LLP, for an update on the immigration landscape and we are honoured to hear from Sean Clark, Consul and Senior Trade Commissioner at the Consulate General of Canada in Denver for an update on the work of the Consulate General.
