Pittsburgh's international market

Pittsburgh has 15 sister cities around the world.

We have local communities made up of concentrations of immigrants from seven African countries, five East Asian/Pacific Rim countries, seven Latin American countries, five Middle Eastern countries, two South Asian countries and 21 European countries. These are all recent immigrants and are not anybody’s great, great grandparents.
More than 100 internationally owned companies (representing Europe, Japan and the Pacific Rim) have located their U.S. or world headquarters in Pittsburgh.
We have formal trade partnerships with five British regions.

Join us and discover the many international resources that our region has to offer!
