Trade Council of Wichita (formerly the World Trade Club)
was organized in 1975/76 by co-founders Dr.Lee Nehrt, Dr.Dharma De Silva & Dean Larry McKibbin at the Chamber
with 11 area MNCs to promote international trade & investment in
Greater Wichita and South Central Kansas. The WTC originated in 1974
