LBBC Aims
A better relationship. The Libyan British Business Council fosters high-level links between the public and private sectors in both countries. It supports commercial activity between the respective business communities, working with the British and Libyan governments, and in Libya with the Libyan Business Council and the British Business Group. It also identifies potential joint venture partners and acts as a reference point for matters of mutual concern. It publishes a regular bulletin, keeping members up to date with the latest commercial and economic developments affecting the two countries.
The Council enjoys the support of the Libyan and British governments. Its establishment in 2004 followed a period when the full potential of economic relations between the UK and Libya had not been realised. British companies have a long and honourable history of trade with Libya that has been of mutual benefit. The Council seeks to build on the successes of the past and to identify new opportunities for the future for both British and Libyan organisations. The Council promotes contacts between Britain and Libya designed to increase the volume of business in an era marked by mutual respect and co-operation.
