ATLANTA – Gov. Brian Kemp has accepted an invitation to attend the Munich Security Conference in Germany this weekend to participate in a roundtable discussion with foreign leaders and partners on international economic relations and geopolitics.

The annual conference is the world’s leading multinational forum for debating international security policy. It also provides a valuable opportunity for bilateral meetings with economic development prospects that can lead to more jobs and investments in Georgia.

“I’m looking forward to representing Georgians and hardworking Americans at this year’s Munich Security Conference,” Kemp said Wednesday. “I will carry their loud and clear message that we need common-sense economic and security policy that does not disadvantage American families or their businesses.”

Kemp will hold meetings with private sector leaders in key industries while attending the conference, adding an economic development component to the overseas trip.

This will be the governor’s second trip to Europe already this year. Last month, he led a trade mission to Germany and Poland.
