In its eighth year, this flagship international capacity-building program addresses both energy value chain fundamentals and commercial energy investment complexities with a unique integration of tools, activities and concepts. The program is especially useful for public and private decision makers engaged in energy sector investment, reform and development; and commercial managers engaged in international project and business development. New Era emphasizes the relationship between energy value chain economics, technology, and operations with policy and regulatory frameworks necessary to host commercially successful investment. New Era delegates benefit from abundant opportunities for networking with other delegates, guest speakers, and the U.S. and global energy businesses based in the Houston region. Site visits in the past included a green field LNG import terminal; midstream and end use applications for natural gas; energy regulatory agencies; and an electric power control center. Over the past seven years, program participants have come from state-owned, local and international energy companies; ministries; regulatory agencies; news media and universities. Countries represented in the New Era programs since 2001 are: Algeria, Angola, Bangladesh, Benin, Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Cote d'Ivoire, Ecuador, Gambia, Ghana, Honduras, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Iraq, Kenya, Madagascar, Mexico, Namibia, Nigeria, Peru, Republic of Congo, Republic of Georgia, Tanzania, Togo, Trinidad & Tobago, Turkey, Turkmenistan, the United Kingdom, the United States and Venezuela. In addition to our CEE and UT experts, we include distinguished guest instructors from the CEE's large, global network of leading government institutions, nongovernmental organizations, and public and private corporations.
