Dear AMCHAM members, partners and friends,
Welcome to issue 148 of your AMCHAM Digital Newsletter!
AmCham was absolutely delighted at the end of last week to partner with Agilité, for a wonderful Summer BBQ at the Big Beer Company. This was a fully sold out and absolutely terrific summer event with great weather, a wonderful crowd of old and new friends, wonderful food and drinks and really an energetically entertaining country music presentation by our good friend Frank from Country Radio Gilsdorf! Most especially, special thanks to Kirsty Shearer for this great evening Agilité offered to AmCham Members…

Our interviewee this week is Avanti Sharma, a strong young woman tech leader who very much impressed us when she participated as one of our speaker guests in the panel discussion for International woman’s day. We are excited to share with you her story and her vision for the future for herself and her generation. Thank you very much Ms. Sharma for allowing us to interview you!
At the beginning of this week, our Space committee has been pleased to host a meeting with like-minded delegation of space focused working professionals visiting Luxembourg from the United States (AIAA-American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) and (IFG-InterFlight Global Europe). We remain excited about the potential of this sector and the leadership role Luxembourg can offer. Please see a group photo of this gathering (HERE).
We are working hard developing our Fall program and are excited about the interesting news we hope to be able to share with you soon.
In the meantime, enjoy all of the content we share with you in this issue, and please know that we welcome and appreciate your feedback and suggestions!
With respect and very best wishes,
