We network
As a member of an AHK, you will be immersed in a network of international business opportunities, resources and expertise that will take your entrepreneurial ambitions to a new level.
AHK membership is not covered by the compulsory membership in the Chambers of Commerce and Industry (abbreviated ‘IHKs’ based on the name in German, Industrie- und Handelskammern) and must be applied for separately at the respective AHK in the host country. Any company from Germany or the host country can become a member of an AHK. The exact services and benefits associated with AHK membership may vary depending on the specific Chamber Of Commerce Abroad and the needs of its members. For further information on services, terms and conditions, please contact the relevant AHK directly.
