Washington, DC – The Export-Import Bank of the United States (EXIM) will kick off its 2025 Annual Conference at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, April 29, 2025. The event will be a two-day forum of remarks, plenary discussions and breakout sessions that will highlight the critical role EXIM plays in supporting U.S. jobs and economic security. 

“I am thrilled that EXIM will be hosting another flagship conference highlighting the importance of American export competitiveness,” said Acting President and Chair James Cruse. “The conference is a prime opportunity for industry and government leaders to come together and engage in informative and enlightening conversations that will ultimately benefit all parties as we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of global exporting.”

The theme of this year’s conference is “Winning Globally in America’s Golden Age.” The flagship event will feature high-level dialogue with innovative leaders in business, finance, government, policy and media. This year’s event will explore topics including American energy dominance, strengthening American national and economic security and enhancing U.S. domestic manufacturing and supply chains. 

Featured speakers include Doug Burgum, Secretary of the Interior, Kelly Loeffler, Administrator of the Small Business Administration, Ohio Congressman Warren Davidson, and Ambassador Paula Dobriansky.

With wide participation from the banking, insurance and international finance communities, the conference will provide a platform to highlight congressional support for the Trump Administration’s America First trade and national economic security policies and efforts to compete globally and restore American prosperity. 

Throughout the event, EXIM will recognize some of America’s leading exporters, presenting national export awards acknowledging their work as they continue bolstering the domestic workforce and fortifying supply chains.

Over the course of the conference, EXIM will be facilitating one-on-one government-to-business consultations with EXIM staff. As many of the registered participants are small business owners, exporters and other trade professionals, these consultations will align participants with suitable partners, contacts, and resources in key foreign markets, providing them with the opportunity to lay the foundation for successful international expansion and establish mutually beneficial partnerships.
