  • (1888PressRelease) March 15, 2011 - Following the Annual General Meeting on 23 February 2011, the British-Israel Chamber of Commerce (B-ICC) has merged with the Israel Britain Business Council (IBBC) to form UK ISRAEL BUSINESS. UK ISRAEL BUSINESS provides a central port of call for all issues relating to bilateral business, trade, industry and investment activities between UK and Israel.

    UK ISRAEL BUSINESS has already begun building upon the sustained growth of the British-Israel Chamber of Commerce during 2010 and the remarkable success of the British Israeli Business Awards Dinner and UK Israel Technology Initiative.

    This week, UK ISRAEL BUSINESS has been to the States of Jersey as part of its strategic partnership with Jersey Enterprise. As the next stage of the partnership, UK ISRAEL BUSINESS will be forming a business delegation taking leading Jersey and UK business people from the Clean Tech and E-Gaming sectors to Israel.

    UK ISRAEL BUSINESS's Clean Tech, Property and Investment forums are now in full swing. In addition, UK ISRAEL BUSINESS is welcoming several captains of industry and senior decision makers to speak at its private roundtables and business breakfasts during the first half of 2011. These include Lord Fink, Chief Executive of ISAM, Lord Sassoon, Commercial Secretary to the Treasury, Sir Martin Sorrell, Chief Executive of WPP Group, and Willie Walsh, Chief Executive of International Airlines Group.

    UK ISRAEL BUSINESS has also been featuring heavily in the printed press and in the social media. There has been significant media coverage about UK ISRAEL BUSINESS on Sky News, City AM, the Jewish Chronicle and Cleantech Investor Magazine, and Real Business has been just one of the many business publications to tweet and write about UK ISRAEL BUSINESS activities.

    For its part, UK ISRAEL BUSINESS has launched a series of initiatives to more widely and effectively communicate its activities. Those interested in the organisation, or simply in trade between the UK and Israel, can follow UK ISRAEL BUSINESS on Twitter, join its Linkedin Group and also become a fan on Facebook. Photos from all UK ISRAEL BUSINESS events can be viewed online at the Picasa page (please click on the links below).

    Most significantly, UK ISRAEL BUSINESS has now launched its new website, www.ukisraelbusiness.co.uk. Comprehensive information about the services that UK ISRAEL BUSINESS provides, the partners that it works with, its previous events, registration, how to receive updates, how to become a member, as well as opportunities to purchase tickets to future events can all be found via the website.

    With all these developments kick-starting the birth of UK ISRAEL BUSINESS, 2011 is sure to be an exciting year for the organisation. Whether you have a pre-existing interest in Israeli business, see commercial opportunities in the country, or simply want to know more, you are encouraged to get in touch and participate in the burgeoning trade between the UK, States of Jersey and Israel.
