September 6, 2024 – The American Chamber of Commerce Tunisia – AmCham Tunisia held its 7th Elective General Assembly at Concorde Hotel Les Berges du Lac in Tunis.
AmCham Tunisia hosted its members from various sectors. The Elective General Assembly agenda was structured by overviewing the approval of the due moral and financial reports for the year 2022 and the year 2023 and the adoption of a new resolution anonymously, followed by the vote of the new AmCham Tunisia board members.
In particular, on that day, M. Noomane Fehri, CEO at OurDigitalFuture.org and an AmCham Tunisia’s board member, suggested that AmCham Tunisia’s former presidents have the right to take a seat on the executive board, to bring their expertise over 30 years.
