LABA From reflections and discussions dating as far back as 2010, and the observation that there are many professionals and entrepreneurs of Arab origin happily employed or established in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, and as many residents of the greater region interested in the Middle-East region or already in commerce with related countries, came the idea to regroup as many of them to form a business association that would create a positive momentum, and endeavour to federate its members in a common goal, at least in the GD. Thus the idea was born to form a BUSINESS association only concerned with business issues, completely apolitical and a-religious, that will leverage the skills arising from the very diversity of talents and experience of its members, grouping people of different Arab nationalities and others interested in economic exchanges with the related regions. The Luxembourg Arab Business Association will function along the lines of similar associations, based on the principle of a meeting of friends, people who enjoy meeting each other’s, look forward to it, but also find pleasure and benefit in doing so. Membership operates by co-optation and is subject to the approval of the Board. We aim to embrace in the best practices of corporate governance, gender parity, and the avowed aim of enhancing our environment through the conduct of ethical business. Aims and objectives: The aim is to provide a business forum that would regroup the professionals residing or working in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg for men and women, lawyers, accountants, bankers, entrepreneurs, and of any profession residing or working in Luxembourg, of Arab origin, or people engaged in economic activities or interested to do so with Arab countries. Specifically. The association aims to : Promote the development of trading, financial, legal, and scientific activities of the countries involved and the GD trengthen existing relationships between the GD and the countries
