In the international sector, the AAMA Foreign Business Development Committee continually seeks new ways to increase our members business  abroad.

Over the past several years, the visibility of coin-operated games overseas has grown, thanks to the efforts of newly developed programs. As this visibility in other parts of the world increase, AAMA members continue to maximize on export opportunities.

In recent years, the Foreign Business Development Program has launched successful trade missions in Mexico, India, Czech Republic and Russia to name a few. Based upon the overall enthusiasm for these ventures, further trade missions are being investigated to continue the industry's move into international markets.

Additionally, the association is represented on the Industry Sector Advisory Committee (ISAC) Four Advisory Panel for Consumer Goods at the U.S. Commerce Department, and attends quarterly meetings to provide input on tariff and trade matters which impact our membership.
