Great Wine Capitals Global Network - is an alliance of eight major global cities in both the northern and southern hemispheres, which share a key economic and cultural asset – their internationally renowned wine regions.

Napa County League of Governments - The Napa County League of Governments was established in early 2002, with participation from the five cities and the County of Napa. NCLOG's purpose is to address issues of common concern across all jurisdictions, including transportation, housing, economic growth, agricultural preservation, environmental protection and social equity. To this end NCLOG has been successful in helping to craft an agreement among Napa County and the cities of Napa and American Canyon on new housing that will allow all three jurisdictions to meet state requirements. Over the coming months NCLOG will identify other issues of common concern to the county, including development of a long range, countywide visitor serving strategy.
