“I am delighted with the addition of Peter Oosterveer to the board,” USCBC President John Frisbie said. “USCBC is privileged to have a board comprised of many of America’s most talented business leaders. With China representing a $350 billion market for American companies, it is important to have a dynamic group of American business leaders, including those from the engineering and construction sector, focused on expanding the U.S.-China commercial relationship.”

Active since 1973, the USCBC is a private, nonpartisan, nonprofit organization of approximately 220 American companies that do business with China.
