Dear Colleagues, Among the District Export Councils (DECs), Trade DNA has become a vital focus for engaging with universities and schools across the nation. For over two decades, DECs have worked on addressing the challenges of building traditional educational models and establishing sustainable structures in today’s ever-evolving educational landscape. One standout program that aligns with this mission is X-Culture, a nonprofit initiative that has inspired students of all levels about the value of global business and exporting for over 14 years. X-Culture’s innovative approach enhances the goals of Trade DNA and provides additional value to both students and businesses. According to current National DEC Chair, Jonathan Szucs: "For any small business looking to solve issues, including growing internationally, X-Culture is a must. It blends student teams with businesses to find simple solutions to complex problems. These solutions can change the trajectory of a small business, increasing its revenue and profitability. I would recommend X-Culture to any business." We encourage you to explore testimonials, watch short videos, and discover why X-Culture works: 🔹 Tell them, and they’ll forget. 🔹 Show them, and they’ll remember. 🔹 Engage them, and they’ll understand. If this sparks your interest, we welcome a discussion on how X-Culture can support your DEC’s Trade DNA vision.
For X-Culture Business Partners

A special message from National Association of District Export Councils: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 8, 2024 NADEC Encourages Continued Negotiations to Secure Long-Term Stability at U.S. Ports and Protect Small & Medium Size Exporters On October 3, 2024, the International Longshoremen’s Association and the United States Maritime Alliance reached an encouraging agreement, bringing an end to the strike at East Coast and Gulf Coast ports. The current master contract governing containerized cargo movement will be extended until January 15, 2025, providing a critical opportunity for ongoing negotiations to secure a long-term solution. The National Association of District Export Councils (NADEC) acknowledges the responsible actions taken by both parties in reaching this temporary agreement and strongly encourages them to use this extended period to secure a fair and durable resolution. Such an outcome is essential for ensuring long-term stability at our nation's ports, while also safeguarding the interests of small and medium-sized exporters who rely on these vital trade gateways. With continued commitment and collaboration, a comprehensive agreement that benefits all stakeholders can be achieved. For media inquiries, please contact: Sandra Vazeen, Communications Officer National Association of District Export Councils Email: nadec@usaexporter.org Thank you for your continued support of American exporters. Best regards, Anne Burkett Chair, NADEC Board
