美国一支43人代表组成的队伍将首次参加古巴工业博览会，该博览会致力于为古巴吸引更多外来投资。

 

Some 10 U.S. companies will attend the fair, the second of its kind, on June 20-24, Adriana Barcelo, director of Technology Management at the Ministry² of Industries and vice³ president of the organizing committee, told reporters.

 

In addition, representatives of the United States Hispanic Chamber⁴ of Commerce, comprising Spanish-speaking American businessmen, will be present at the fair, said Barcelo, adding that the delegation seeks to "explore the Cuban market."

 

This year's fair will focus on sustainable development, drawing U.S. companies in the field of recycling and technological⁵ innovation, she said.
