We are working with our colleague, Arty Hyseni, in setting up this Chamber of Commerce. It is planned that Laurence will be a Board Member of the new Chamber and that Annie will provide the Secretariat for it. There are many opportunities which exist for British companies in Ethiopia, and also Ethiopian companies in the UK. We therefore hope to engage the Ethiopian diaspora in this venture and we are being greatly assisted by the Ethiopian Embassy in London. We are planning a launch of the Chamber at the Embassy in August – more news as we get it. To express interest please email annie@theoc-consultancy.co.uk
