The United States is among the top five countries that invest in Moldova and a part of this success is attributed to the American Chamber of Commerce in Moldova (AmCham), the organization’s president John Maxemchuk said in a ceremony held to celebrate five years of activity by AmCham in Moldova, Info-Prim Neo reports. ”Many business leaders have contributed much of their personal time above and beyond what they dedicate to their own companies to improving the overall business climate for everyone’s benefit. Whether it is in the form of supporting and assisting other businesses, contributing to social projects or consulting on legislative and reform efforts, our members are actively working to improve the business climate in Moldova. It is this attitude of collaboration and dedication to the common good that makes me confident that we have a great future,” stated John Maxemchuk. The representatives of AmCham said Moldova has developed significantly during the last few years, while the Government becomes more open for cooperation with the economic entities. ”AmCham has worked closely with the Moldovan government and business leaders in a wide range of activities that include participation in legislative reforms, active sponsorship of new initiatives, direct support for our member companies and much more, all of which is intended to foster a more favorable business climate in Moldova for foreign trade and investment,” said John Maxemchuk. Attending the event, U.S. Ambassador to Moldova said that in the past five years, the American Chamber of Commerce's work on behalf of its members and the wider Moldovan business community has improved the business climate. “However, AmCham is more than a business organization. It is a symbol of the type of relationships possible when people work together to achieve a common goal. AmCham members are committed to working with the Moldovan Government and Moldovan business leaders to develop a business climate where Moldovan and foreign firms can succeed. I look forward to AmCham's continued successes and the benefits these successes will provide for the Moldovan people in the years to come,” said the Ambassador, who is the Honorary President of AmCham Moldova. The American Chamber of Commerce in Moldova, founded in 2006, is one of the largest business associations, gathering more than 70 international and local companies and is officially accredited by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and linked into the global network of more than 112 American Chambers of Commerce worldwide.
