US Trade Mission to visit Sri Lanka
The US Embassy in Colombo together with the American Chamber of
Commerce (AmCham) will host a multi sector US Trade Delegation on
February 7 and 8. Eight US companies in a range of sectors including
aviation, architecture, infrastructure, education, medical, food
franchise and IT will be represented in this trade delegation. Colombo
is the final leg of this trade mission that is also visiting Chennai and
Cochin.
The delegation will aim to expand bi-lateral trade between Sri Lanka
and United States by establishing mutually beneficial trade
partnerships. AmCham and the US Embassy will facilitate trade
discussions with local business leaders belonging to the respective
sectors while the delegation is in Colombo.
The Ceylon Chamber of Commerce has also been invited to join in the
discussions and provide an opportunity for their members also to meet
the visiting delegation.
Business discussions and meetings with the US Embassy, American
Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) and Ceylon Chamber of Commerce (CCC) will
take place on February 8 morning followed by one-to-one meetings with
Sri Lankan Entrepreneurs by prior appointment. An AmCham networking
event will be held in the evening to provide a networking opportunity
for AmCham members and their guests and the CCC members.
AmCham intends organising similar business visits in the future from
delegations from the US as well as from US Companies operating in the
Asia Pacific region.
