The American Chamber of Commerce in Libya - AmCham Libya - has announced that it has resumed activities and is currently rebuilding its membership base.
The major activity of an AmCham is to provide service to member firms who support the organization. AmCham Libya facilitates business between the U.S. and Libya, provides a forum in which American and Libyan business people can identify and address common areas of interest regarding their commercial interests in Libya and has as its goal the promotion of a vibrant economy, while protecting and advancing the interests of its members, and the community as a whole.
In a statement, AmCham Libya said:
"The reconstruction of Libya is one of the largest and most important undertakings in the region in recent memory. Libyans deserve the best of what the world can offer, and businesses that are willing to make the commitment have the opportunity to reap great benefits. It is in this spirit that AmCham Libya strives to help both sides."
