Lori Blaker, President/CEO
After this second trip to Afghanistan, we see a deep need for the services our company offers. There are great challenges and opportunities for companies willing to provide support services at the local level.

Earlier this year, TTi Global was one of twelve U.S. companies to participate in an eight day U.S. Department of Commerce trade mission to Kabul. Since Presidents Obama and Karzai signed the Strategic Partnership Agreement, foreign companies are being recruited to invest in developing Afghanistan’s infrastructure. Targeted growth sectors include; agriculture, mining and power, transport and logistics, low-end manufacturing, telecommunication and construction. http://translations.state.gov/st/english/texttrans/2012/05/201205024897.html#axzz20Enx1lPw
“After this second trip to Afghanistan, we see a deep need for the services our company offers,” states Blaker. “There are great challenges and opportunities for companies willing to provide support services at the local level.”
TTi Global plans to establish its first office in Kabul and then explore setting up shop in other provinces. Having a base of operation in the country will position their company to support the reconstruction efforts as NATO troops withdrawal.
