Projects and Programs are professional and trade-related activities developed and executed by AmCham-Jordan. In addition to the SIYB and EYB Projects, we organize the American Jordanian Expo (AJEX), carry out Sector / Industry support activities, and organize the Executive-Lunch, a trade discussion hosting key-note speakers from the U.S. and Jordan. A current program at AmCham-Jordan, which is undergoing a major expansion, is the JUST Iraq Program. This program promotes Jordanian – US trade with Iraq, and will include activities such as economic development and business linkages activities for and between Jordan and Iraq. New programs are “Trade-By-State” and “AmCham Certification” Programs. The Trade-by-State program includes trade promotion activities related to State-level product and services. The other program relates to introducing different levels and categories of document / business certification in the planning at AmCham-Jordan.
