PHNOM PENH: The ASEAN-Cambodia Business Summit is planned to be held in Phnom Penh in the upcoming March, bringing economic players from ASEAN with experts to promote trade and connectivity in the region.
The Cambodia Chamber of Commerce (CCC) organised on Jan. 5 a preparatory discussion meeting for the upcoming summit. The meeting was chaired by Neak Oknha Kith Meng, CCC President and Co-chair of the ASEAN Business Advisory Council, and CCC members as well as relevant stakeholders.
The summit will be presided over by Samdech Moha Borvor Thipadei Hun Manet, Prime Minister of Cambodia with the participation of directors, entrepreneurs, investors and experts from all sectors across ASEAN and the world, the CCC said in a statement.
The preparatory discussion was focused on collecting inputs and cooperation from all stakeholders, especially the Cambodian Chamber of Commerce and the International Trade Association, for the ASEAN-Cambodia Business Summit to be successful and promote investment in Cambodia, which is the core hub of ASEAN.
The meeting also discussed the common theme of the business summit agenda, the content of each programme topic, the establishment of technical committees, the invitation of speakers and experts, the preparation of other programmes and the logistics supporting the entire programme.
As planned, various topics will be discussed, including an analysis of the economic challenges and opportunities in Cambodia, to enable a favourable business environment for growth and foster economic integration within the region and beyond.
The rest of the agenda featured presentations, panel discussions, experience-sharing workshops and networking.
Cambodia hosted the ASEAN-Cambodia Business Summit 2023 in November last year under the theme “Connectivity is Growth in the Mekong Region”.
