Newsletter

 

Welcome to February newsletter! The global landscape is experiencing profound shifts, resulting in substantial unpredictability for businesses and individuals alike. These unprecedented times present major challenges for our members, regardless of their size. Many companies are developing short-term strategies and seeking the right partners to navigate forward.

Business organizations like AmCham share common values and support business concerns advocating for strong transatlantic relations. Maintaining a platform for dialogue to facilitate trade, investment and economic security is more essential than ever.

February 24 marked three years since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. AmCham continues to condemn the war as a clear violation of international law. American, European and Latvian companies – including many of our members – remain steadfast in their support for Ukraine’s sovereignty, peace, and economic recovery.

Please join us on for our Annual General Meeting on March 20! We look forward to seeing you, discussing further role of AmCham and elect new Board members.
