AmCham Ethiopia is pleased to announce the launch of its Agribusiness Committee, a new platform bringing together businesses, industry leaders, and key stakeholders to address the opportunities and challenges shaping Ethiopia’s agribusiness sector.

The inaugural committee meeting brought together industry representatives and the U.S. Embassy Addis Ababa for a constructive dialogue on sector priorities, challenges, and opportunities.

The Agribusiness Committee will provide AmCham members with a platform to share industry insights, identify policy and business priorities, and engage collectively with relevant stakeholders to advance solutions that promote investment, private-sector engagement, and sustainable growth.

We look forward to building on this important first step and working together to strengthen Ethiopia’s agribusiness ecosystem.

AmCham Ethiopia, in partnership with Center for International Private Enterprise, was pleased to host a full-day executive workshop titled “Beyond Compliance: Building Resilience and Growth Through ESG Sustainability.”

Held on February 27, 2026, at the Marriott Executive Apartments Addis Ababa, the workshop brought together CEOs, Managing Directors, Board Members, and senior executives to explore how ESG is increasingly shaping corporate strategy, risk management, and access to capital.

The session was led by two distinguished ESG practitioners, Samuel Hailu Yirdaw and Deborah Mekbib Kifle, who shared global insights and practical guidance on topics including IFC Performance Standards, ESG risk exposure in Ethiopia’s key sectors, EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), and building investor-ready Environmental & Social Management Systems (ESMS).

The discussion focused on moving beyond compliance to positioning ESG as a strategic tool for resilience, sustainable growth, and competitiveness in an evolving investment landscape.

We extend our appreciation to the speakers and all participating executives for the engaging discussions and valuable exchange of perspectives.

AmCham Ethiopia, in partnership with Center for International Private Enterprise, was pleased to host a half-day training on Ethical Governance, Integrity, and Compliance for our members.

The session focused on strengthening practical governance systems, identifying operational risks, and embedding integrity into day-to-day business operations. Participants engaged in thoughtful discussions around procurement controls, conflict-of-interest frameworks, whistleblowing mechanisms, and accountability structures within organizations.

As regulatory expectations and investor standards continue to evolve, building strong internal governance systems is no longer optional. It is foundational to credibility, resilience, and long-term growth.

We thank all participants for their active engagement and commitment to strengthening governance practices within their organizations.
