Founded in
2002, the US-Algeria Business Council (USABC)
is one of the most prominent and active
bilateral business associations
operating in Washington, DC. The USABC
is a privately-funded,
membership-driven, non-profit business
association composed of Algerian and US
companies.
The USABC accomplishes its mission of
promoting trade between the United
States and Algeria by organizing
sector-specific symposia on topics of
interest to our members, hosting dinners
and events featuring Algerian and US
officials and promoting our members
products and services through customized
matchmaking initiatives. |
The creation of the USABC was the result of an
Algerian and US business initiative. Several
prominent US and Algerian companies created the
Council in 2002 to fulfill three objectives: to
promote the diversification of US-Algeria trade
to contribute to the existing trade between the
two countries, to orient US companies seeking
opportunities in Algeria, and to compliment the
trade promotion activities of both governments.
Nearly all of the founding members of the USABC
remain active today and have played a key role
in upgrading the Council to its new level of
operations and service.
In August 2004 the USABC upgraded its operations
to include a trilingual staff of trade experts
dedicated to facilitating US-Algeria trade.
Since 2004 the Council has more than doubled its
number of members, its membership services, and
its prominence as a reputable and fair
non-profit business association.
The US-Algeria Business Council is a
membership-driven organization. The strategic
vision and the activities of the USABC are
determined by the USABC Board of Directors which
is composed fully of USABC members. The USABC
Board of Directors consists of prominent US
Fortune 500 companies and their Algerian
counterparts. USABC board members represent
variety of sectors and work together in
coalitions to achieve positive results for USABC
member objectives.
Membership in the USABC is open to US and
Algerian companies in good standing seeking
opportunities in US-Algeria trade. USABC
membership levels range from corporate
membership to board membership. Contact the
USABC office today to learn how the USABC team
can help you achieve your business objectives.
