Neal Asbury, CEO, The Legacy Companies.  An entrepreneur involved in global business since graduating from Rowan State University in New Jersey in 1979 with a Bachelor of Arts degree.  Shortly afterwards he was recruited by Inchcape PLC and moved to Asia to represent the interests of a number of U.S. manufacturers throughout the region.  When it comes to advocating on behalf of entrepreneurship and free enterprise, there is no one more passionate.  It’s no coincidence that he was the 2008 recipient of the coveted United States National Champion Exporter of the Year Award.

Neal has published over 300 articles on global trade issues, and writes a weekly column for Newsmax.  He has been quoted in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, LeMonde, and frequently appears on cable television nationally and internationally, often seen on Fox News, CNBC, MSNBC, BBC and RT Network.

Each week Neal hosts the nationally syndicated talk radio show “Neal Asbury’s Made In America”, produced by Radio America. This has become a nationally respected forum for reinvigorating the entrepreneurial spirit that has made U.S. businesses the envy of the world in their pursuit of the “American Dream.”  “Made In America” features leading political and industry experts and is carried by more than 60 affiliates from coast-to-coast.

Neal is a published author of the book “Conscientious Equity: An American Entrepreneurs Solutions to the World’s Greatest Problems,” by Palgrave & MacMillan.  The book has quickly become a respected guidebook to help American manufacturers engage with the world on trade, fighting corruption, environmental issues and preserving human dignity.

Mr. Asbury’s blog www.conscientiousequity.com is a favorite on-line destination for visitors who share his passion for small business entrepreneurship and the benefits of expanding the U.S. role in global commerce. His advocacy has taken him to address the United Nations at the Commission of Trade and Development, as well as frequent speaking engagements at universities, government events and trade associations.
