The Bulgaria-Czech Chamber of Commerce, chaired by Maxim Behar, successfully organized a business visit to Prague

Nearly 20 representatives of Bulgarian business met with their Czech counterparts in the Czech capital during a forum organized by the Chamber at the Bulgarian Embassy in Prague. The program included a presentation on the Chamber’s activities, as well as a lively discussion on key business topics such as Bulgaria’s tax policy, investment opportunities, and the development of bilateral economic relations. Dozens of individual meetings were also held, resulting in concrete business projects and laying the foundations for closer and more productive cooperation.

“I am proud that only a year after its establishment, the Chamber managed to organize such a large-scale and successful event. Czech businesses are showing strong interest in Bulgaria, and I believe this is the beginning of an even closer partnership. I am extremely grateful for the support of our Embassy in Prague and the Embassy of the Czech Republic in Sofia, both of which played a vital role in the success of this visit,” commented Maxim Behar.

During their stay in Prague, the Bulgarian delegation held high-level meetings at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Confederation of Industry of the Czech Republic, as well as at the headquarters of the insurance holding company Renomia. Maxim Behar also had a separate meeting with the Czech Minister for European Affairs, Mr. Martin Dvořák, who a year ago was among the official guests at the Chamber’s founding in Sofia.

“We are returning to Bulgaria with great optimism – the Chamber is already establishing itself as a reliable partner and a strong bridge for business between the two countries. Everywhere we were welcomed, there was a clear expectation that we can contribute to strengthening bilateral cooperation, and this is exactly our mission,” Behar added.

The Bulgaria-Czech Chamber of Commerce was founded in October 2024 in Sofia by ten Bulgarian companies with long-standing business ties with the Czech Republic. Today, it already unites nearly 50 companies, with the number steadily growing every week.
