President Clinton had attended the Irish Diaspora economic forum in Dublin in September and had undertaken to host an event for potential investors in Ireland in New York.
The day-long event consist of two meetings, the first with a core group of 25 leading businessmen, then a meeting with 100 Irish American community leaders.
On Wednesday, Enda Kenny laid out his hopes and expectations for the conference.
"At this special event in New York, the President and I will meet with a number of senior US executives who do not yet have substantive business interests here," the Taoiseach said.
"This is a unique opportunity to engage with the highest levels of the international business world - to promote Ireland as an investment destination, and is yet another manifestation of how to achieve the mission of the global Irish making a difference together."
