Tune In: The New Podcast from the Chamber of Commerce
After Years of Inactivity, the Israel-Romania Chamber of Commerce and Industry Resumes Operations!
The Israel-Romania Chamber of Commerce and Industry is making a strong comeback, reviving its activities with a clear goal: strengthening trade relations, investments, and strategic partnerships between the two nations.
🎙️ Dr. Gideon Fisher, President of the Israel-Romania Chamber of Commerce and Industry:
"Founded in 1933, the Israel-Romania Chamber of Commerce and Industry is Israel’s oldest chamber of commerce. In recent years, its focus has been primarily social, but now, we are revitalizing its core mission—promoting trade and industry."
The Chamber has two key objectives:
-
For businesses not yet operating in Romania but interested in entering the market, our role is to facilitate, promote, and support them. We work in close collaboration with the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Israel Export Institute, the Federation of Israeli Chambers of Commerce, the Manufacturers’ Association, and other key stakeholders.
-
For businesses already engaged in trade with Romania, the Chamber provides strategic support, guidance, and resources while working to streamline bureaucratic processes wherever possible.
🎙️ Ron Gerstenfeld, Head of the Europe Department, Economic Affairs Division, Ministry of Foreign Affairs:
"Romania has maintained strong business and diplomatic ties with Israel over the years, highlighting significant potential for further expansion and collaboration."
🎙️ Yaron Scherter, Head of the Europe Department, Foreign Trade Administration, Ministry of Economy:
"Trade between Israel and Romania currently stands at approximately $1.3 billion, but the potential is far greater. Romania requires modernization in IT systems and agriculture, and as a ‘Startup Nation’ renowned for technological innovation, Israel is well-positioned to play a key role in this transformation."
"The business delegation led by the Chamber in early March is an important step in this direction. Our trade representatives are fully available to assist."
