On 16 October, AMCHAM hosted a Members’ Briefing at Botanica+Co, Bangsar South, aimed at keeping our members informed on the latest developments from AMCHAM and updates from the U.S. Embassy. This session featured a special guest speaker, Steven Okun, Senior Advisor at McLarty Associates and CEO of APAC Advisors, who provided an expert analysis of the upcoming U.S. elections and its potential impact on the U.S. business community in Asia.

AMCHAM’s CEO, Dato’ Siobhan Das, shared key updates on recent high-level dialogues, upcoming events, and ongoing activities at the Chamber. Dave Williams, Economic Counsellor, and Francis “Chip” Peters, Senior Commercial Officer from the U.S. Embassy, also shared valuable U.S. updates with our members.

Steven Okun’s session delved into the key issues shaping the U.S. Presidential election, voter sentiments, and the potential business implications depending on the outcome. Our members had the chance to engage in a dynamic discussion, addressing their concerns and questions.

A big thank you to Steven Okun for his in-depth analysis and to all who joined us. We look forward to more enriching conversations in the future!
