“I believe that fundamental needs of the business community do not change with the political cycle. AmCham should always be an advocate of things like stability and a strong pro-business environment that enables us to want to re-invest and to tell our friends to do the same. We are a critical part in the country’s development and of forming the world’s view of Georgia as a place to invest,” said Amcham President Sarah Williamson at the elections.
AmCham would like to thank all members for taking part in this important democratic process.
AmCham Georgia is the leading international business association supporting and promoting US-Georgia Economic and commercial relations and representing the interests of business in Georgia. Our advocacy work in a broad range of areas of interest to our members and potential investors is unparalleled.
