Job Description

EuroCham Cambodia was inaugurated on June 2nd, 2011 with the support of the three founding European Business Organizations:

  • the Chambre de Commerce Franco-Cambodgienne (CCFC),
  • the Arbeitskreis Deutsche Wirtschaft (ADW).
  • the British Business Association in Cambodia (BBAC),

EuroCham was established with the objectives of promoting the interests of European businesses operating in Cambodia, facilitating the entry of European companies into the market and creating an extensive support network among corporate and individual members alike.

In this context, EuroCham activities include partnerships with the governments in the areas of taxation and dispute resolution, the creation of sector-specific Committees under the EuroCham umbrella and provision of a range of services to European Businesses.

In addition to its traditional sources of revenues (memberships, sponsorships, services, events…) EuroCham is currently benefitting from a significant 5 years grant from the European Union. As such, and besides its tax declaration as a non for profit institution, EuroCham has reporting obligations to both its members and its donor.
