Antwerp Chapter

The Antwerp Chapter’s aim is to improve business and investment opportunities for the large US-Belgian business community in the Antwerp region and develop an active program of local/regional activities in this region.

Goals

  • Develop a regular program of activities in the Antwerp region;
  • Provide networking and knowledge-sharing opportunities, with particular attention to industrial companies and logistics activities;
  • Strengthen the ties between Antwerp and the US;
  • Develop AmCham Belgium's membership in the region and reach more people within Antwerp-based companies.
