Mission Statement
Our mission is to promote trade and investment between Egypt and the United States.
Activities
The American Chamber of Commerce in Egypt (AmCham Egypt) was created in 1982 as the 44th American Chamber of Commerce to be established abroad and the first in the Middle East. Today it is one of the largest and most active overseas affiliates of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, and continues to enhance economic and investment ties between the United States and Egypt.
AmCham Egypt represents Egyptian companies with business interests in the United States, and American and multinational companies doing business in Egypt. The Chamber pursues its mission and represents its members’ interests under the guidance of an active board of governors and through the work of sector-oriented committees.
AmCham Egypt works on promoting the development of commerce and investment between the United States and Egypt through creating a friendlier business environment, facilitating communication between businessmen; providing a network for sharing business information about and addressing common
problems.
The Chamber provides a forum for members to identify and discuss challenges facing private businesses and presents the views of the business community to the Egyptian and U.S. governments.
AmCham Egypt holds frequent meetings between its membership and key Egyptian and American policymakers and business leaders.
All AmCham activities focus on three tracks – advocacy, awareness and services- all of which are enhanced by its website (www.amcham.org.eg) and its range of high-quality printed publications. In addition, AmCham Egypt actively works to put businesses in contact with each other and offers specialized business services, both to its members and through member companies.
Currently, the Chamber’s membership base is 1,200 members.
