AmCham Libya and the U.S. Embassy co-hosted a reception for American companies active in Libya and Libyan government leaders, following the conclusion of the U.S.-Libya Economic Dialogue in Tunis.

The event supported a central theme of the Dialogue: promoting increased trade and investment in Libya, especially in the energy sector.

The reception followed a panel discussion featuring AmCham Libya Director Debbie Hirst and executives of four U.S. energy companies, who described for an audience of Libyan leaders and business people their long histories in the country, current projects, and the challenges and opportunities for greater partnerships and investments in Libya.
