The American Chamber of Commerce in Guyana (AmCham) was officially launched on Monday evening with a vision to promote trade between the United States and Guyana.
AmCham is a voluntary association of US enterprises and individuals doing business in a given country, and it seeks to promote intercountry trade and create new opportunities for market access between the two countries.
During the launch, which took place at the Marriott Hotel, US Ambassador Perry Holloway delivered a presentation on the importance of AmCham to Guyana, especially on the country’s cusp of massive oil wealth.
“For Guyana, this is a perfect time to launch an AmCham affiliate. AmCham-Guyana will promote and create US-Guyana trade and business opportunities and partnerships,” the US Ambassador stated.
The diplomat added that AmCham will also share in the exchange of best practices for institutions and system building, bringing benefits to the people of both nations.
Minister of Business, Dominic Gaskin, in his remarks, noted that AmCham will “complement and add value” to the structures in the local private sector.
Headed by Mr Zulfikar Ally of Queens Atlantic Investments, the Chamber aims to encourage networking and build valuable business connections as well as to promote mutually beneficial business relations and partnerships between Guyanese and American companies.
