Visit our group page: http://www.linkedin.com/groups?mostPopular=&gid=123910 The American Chamber of Commerce in Luxembourg A.S.B.L. (AMCHAM) is an international voluntary organization of business and professional persons committed to fostering business relations between the United States and Luxembourg, promoting cross-cultural understanding and enhancing the quality of life of Americans and other expatriates who live and work in the Grand Duchy. AMCHAM activities cover the full scope of expatriate issues through dedicated committees for Human Resources, Information Technology, Financial Services , Tax, Marketing, Diversity and New Business & Entrepreneurship. These committees organize seminars and after-hour networking events with international speakers in order to address issues relevant to the international business community in Luxembourg. Lobbying is another item on the committees' agenda and therefore they liaise with Luxembourg officials on a regular basis. The aim is to support the Grand Duchy's position as an ideal gateway to Europe; the continuous analysis of the business environment results in White Papers recommending steps that might help to maintain Luxembourg's high level of economic competitiveness. The Chamber also offers various publications as source of information on the Grand Duchy and transatlantic relations.
