Annual Reports
Dear members and friends
The past year has seen tremendous growth in our membership; the presentation of Greater Philadelphia’s second modern international exposition, GlobalPhilly™ 2015; and the designation of Philadelphia as a World Heritage City.
A vibrant website and this report tell the story.
We can feel it—Philadelphia’s sense of itself as an important international city is growing—and you, the members and friends of the Global Philadelphia Association, are making it happen.
We look forward to your joining us, and to continuing on this remarkable adventure together.
John F. Smith, III
Chair of the Board of Directors
