How does Irving benefit?


Irving Sister Cities International (ISCI) is a division of the Greater Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce. ISCI benefits the entire Irving community—individuals, businesses, schools and universities, and cultural and fraternal organizations.

ISCI is building relationships that:
  • Enable Irving to develop municipal partnerships between foreign cities with similar interests, concerns, and outlooks.
  • Provide opportunities for Irving citizens to experience and explore other cultures through long-term community partnerships.
  • Stimulate environments through which Irving and its sister communities will creatively learn, work and solve problems together through reciprocal cultural, educational, municipal, business, professional, and technical exchanges and projects.
  • Provide a forum to collaborate with organizations in other countries that share similar goals.
  • Enhance Irving's international reputation as the gateway to the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
  • Serve as a protocol resource for the city of Irving.
  • Attract international businesses, students, and tourists to Irving.
  • Provide unparalleled educational opportunities for our children and students of all ages.
