After major success in 2023, EuroCham Cambodia's Green Business Forum is back for round 2!


Hosted by EuroCham's Green Business Committee, this full day forum is a pivotal initiative supporting Cambodia's sustainable development. Aligned with the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Cambodia's commitment to a green economy, this forum brings together a wide range of stakeholders to explore the opportunities and challenges of adopting green business practices.


While Cambodia's rapid economic growth opens doors for sustainable innovations, balancing this with environmental conservation is crucial for long-term prosperity. The forum will touch on the topics of energy, financing, business standards, green jobs, and skills development for the future.


Registration is now open!
