At World’s Largest Industrial Trade Fair, ACT—1 Group Expands European Footprint

Expanding opportunities in European Union (EU) countries remains an essential goal of ACT—1 Group, a workforce management firm based in Charlotte, North Carolina. The firm accompanied the Minority Business Development Agency (MBDA) at Hannover Messe,  April 25-29, 2016.

Founded in 1978, ACT—1 Group focuses on “keeping the ‘humanity’ in human resources,” according to Janice Bryant Howroyd, founder and CEO. With client operations in more than a dozen nations including India, Mexico, Brazil and South Korea, ACT—1 Group was excited to become part of MBDA’s first official delegation at Hannover Messe, the world’s leading trade fair in industrial technology. 

Peter Carvalho, President of Agile—1 participated in the MBDA policy roundtable, ceremonial events, and exhibit fair, building networking connections to expand the company’s footprint within the EU. The company also leveraged MBDA expertise, and plans to follow up with contacts formed during the event.
