When we say the Annual Founder Summit is the place to be this September, we mean it!

You’ll be learning from and connecting with women who have scaled to 8 figures, sold businesses, built teams, made major pivots, navigated hard seasons, learned from failure, and figured out what it takes to grow without doing everything themselves.

These aren’t just speakers with something to say. They’re founders who have been in the room you’re trying to get to.

For three days, you’ll step away from the day-to-day and actually dig into your business, pressure-test your ideas, make decisions, and build a plan for what comes next.

September 15–17 in Denver. Don’t miss your chance to be in the room: https://lnkd.in/gWzhent3

Connecting Global Business with Opportunities in Delaware

World Trade Center Delaware was pleased to welcome Dr. Ali Çolak, Investment & Business Development Director of SoyutWind, to Delaware yesterday, September 1, for a day focused on advancing the company’s plans for the U.S. market.

Based in Ankara, Turkey, SoyutWind is a renewable energy company manufacturing wind turbines ranging from 1 kW to 2.5 MW and is exploring Delaware as a potential location for its future U.S. operations.

SoyutWind is part of the broader business network of Çolak Holding, the license holder and operator of World Trade Center Ankara. This connection adds another dimension to the growing relationship between World Trade Center Delaware and World Trade Center Ankara, bringing together the World Trade Centers Association network to support international trade, investment, and business development between Delaware and Turkey.

Over the past several months, WTC Delaware has connected Dr. Çolak with key leaders and organizations across Delaware to help support SoyutWind’s potential expansion and relocation to the state. Those introductions have developed into ongoing relationships, and during his visit, Dr. Çolak continued those conversations with representatives from WSFS Bank and CSC and met with Mike Bowman, President & CEO of Delaware Technology Park and State Director of the Delaware SBDC, discussing resources and opportunities available as SoyutWind evaluates Delaware for its U.S. operations.

Dr. Çolak also joined the WTC Delaware team at our new office at the University of Delaware’s FinTech Innovation Hub, where we continued discussions around SoyutWind’s U.S. strategy and were honored to receive a thoughtful gift commemorating his visit.

We look forward to continuing to support SoyutWind as it explores its next steps in Delaware and to further strengthening the relationship between World Trade Center Delaware and World Trade Center Ankara, while building new business connections between Delaware and Turkey. 🇺🇸🇹🇷

World Trade Center Delaware is focused on ensuring that Delaware businesses are positioned to compete, grow, and succeed in the global marketplace. Through the World Trade Centers Association’s network of more than 300 World Trade Centers across 100+ countries, we connect our members and partners to international markets, trusted business relationships, trade opportunities, and resources that can help them expand beyond Delaware.

One such opportunity: Triestespresso Expo 2026, taking place October 21–23, 2026, in Trieste, Italy, one of the leading international events dedicated to the global coffee industry.

We are currently organizing a group of Delaware and other U.S. companies interested in participating. This is not simply an opportunity to attend a trade show. It is an opportunity to build direct partnerships within the coffee ecosystem globally.

Trieste has a centuries-old connection to the global coffee trade, making the Expo an important meeting point for companies across the coffee value chain. Participants from more than 50 countries are expected to connect around sourcing, roasting, distribution, equipment, technology, retail, hospitality, innovation, sustainability, and global trade.

Why participate?
Triestespresso Expo provides companies with opportunities to participate in B2B matchmaking and targeted business meetings with coffee growers (a €400 fee applies for prearranged meetings coordinated by WTC Trieste), meet international buyers, distributors, suppliers, roasters, and potential partners, explore new sourcing and supply-chain relationships, attend live demonstrations, guided tastings, conferences, and export and sustainability sessions, and evaluate opportunities to expand internationally and diversify markets.

Who should consider joining?
We particularly encourage participation from coffee roasters, coffee shops and café chains, importers and distributors, specialty coffee companies, retail and e-commerce businesses, equipment and technology companies, hospitality buyers, food and beverage companies, packaging and supply-chain companies, and entrepreneurs seeking international partnerships.

Whether your company wants to buy, sell, source, distribute, manufacture, partner, or simply understand where the international coffee industry is headed, Triestespresso Expo provides an opportunity to make those connections in one location.

Interested companies should contact World Trade Center Delaware as soon as possible to express interest in joining the group. We are currently identifying participating companies and assessing their business objectives to better understand the opportunities they would like to pursue in Trieste.

Don't just visit the global marketplace. Become part of it.

"Become a beginner again." 🏔️

That's the philosophy that's carried Mary Schreiber Swenson, President of World Trade Center Delaware, through building a medical tourism company, launching and selling a vegan skincare brand, reshaping dental pricing policy across dozens of states, and summiting Mount Kilimanjaro alongside marathoners and veterans (as one of the "least likely" to make it to the top).

Her lesson from that climb? Leadership isn't about being the strongest person on the mountain but it's about helping everyone get there together.

Mary is featured in the Summer 2026 issue of Enterprising Women magazine's Entrepreneurs of Purpose spotlight. Read her full story and see what's next as she leads WTC Delaware into global markets. 👇
