Initiated in 1997, the European Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong (EuroCham) is a non-governmental business interest group. The EuroCham is a ‘Chamber of Chambers’ with its membership comprising 16 European Chambers based in Hong Kong. The appointed representatives of these chambers make up EuroCham’s Board of Directors.

​

Over 1,600 European companies are operating in Hong Kong. In 2019, Europe maintained its position as Hong Kong’s second-largest trading partner after mainland China and Hong Kong’s second-largest export destination and third-largest import supplier. The relationship between Europe and Hong Kong continues to benefit from extensive people-to-people contacts, notably in research, academic cooperation, student mobility, culture, and creative industries.

Hong Kong Relations

EuroCham participates in the International Business Committee (chaired by the HKSAR Chief Secretary for Administration). The committee allows international business associations & chambers to discuss and lobby ‘face to face’ with the Hong Kong Government and its officials. IBC meetings take place 5 – 6 times per year and topics discussed are related to matters affecting international aspects and perceptions of the business environment in Hong Kong.
