San Francisco is hosting an international summit expected to draw 12,000 to the city in November. There are plenty of business opportunities.

With less than a year until San Francisco hosts the Asian-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum at the Moscone Center, the Bay Area Council held a briefing Wednesday to provide more details on the prestigious event, including business opportunities and fundraising efforts.

"The big message that I have for all of you today is: Keep your powder dry," Elsbernd told the crowd of dozens gathered in person and via teleconference."You're going to get phone calls, you're going to get contacted by the feds." "We saw this competition with the feds when we did the ministerial conference," Wunderman said."We asked a lot of people for support and they told us they were already supporting."

The money will cover for security such as police overtime, reservations, staffing and associated costs for the hosts treating hundreds of influential guests to activities around San Francisco.
