About CCLUXRDC

An institutional platform that deepens economic, commercial and institutional cooperation between Luxembourg and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Our story

Two countries, complementary strengths

CCLUXRDC was established to formalise and strengthen the relationship between Luxembourg and the Democratic Republic of Congo through a dedicated chamber of commerce. Luxembourg is recognised internationally for its financial centre, institutional expertise, multilingual business environment and role in development cooperation. The DRC is one of Africa's most strategically important countries: exceptional natural resources, a young and dynamic population, growing entrepreneurial activity and significant long-term potential across infrastructure, energy, finance, agriculture, logistics and services.

The chamber brings these complementary strengths together in a structured, credible and practical way. Operating at the intersection of business, development and diplomacy, it connects Luxembourg-based organisations, DRC stakeholders, diaspora professionals, public institutions, investors and international partners under one trusted platform. Our purpose: to transform interest into real cooperation, concrete partnerships and sustainable economic outcomes.

Mission & vision

Why the chamber exists

Mission

To facilitate genuine, mutually beneficial economic and institutional cooperation between Luxembourg and the DRC: creating trusted connections, supporting market understanding, facilitating investment and business dialogue, and helping members engage with the right partners, institutions and opportunities in a structured and credible manner.

Vision

A robust and trusted Luxembourg–DRC corridor where businesses grow with confidence, capital is connected to responsible opportunities, public institutions collaborate effectively, and partnerships contribute to long-term economic development, innovation and shared prosperity.

Our values

Five commitments that guide the chamber

Integrity

Transparent, responsible and evidence-based relationships that protect trust between members, partners and institutions.

Credibility

Practical facilitation, reliable information and serious engagement rather than symbolic networking.

Partnership

Bridges across sectors: business, finance, government, development actors and the diaspora.

Impact

Cooperation that leads to measurable outcomes in trade, investment, institutional dialogue and sustainable development.

Bilingualism

Service to members and partners in French and English, reflecting the Luxembourg–DRC relationship.

Governance

Who stands behind the chamber

CCLUXRDC — registered as Luxembourg-RD Congo Chambre de Commerce ASBL — is a non-profit association under Luxembourg law, constituted on 18 September 2025. It is governed by its General Assembly and administered by a Board of Directors elected by the members for a term of three years. The chamber operates under a Governance Charter aligned with the accreditation requirements of the Chamber of Commerce of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg for bilateral chambers. It is not a profit-driven enterprise: its resources serve its mission.

How the chamber is run

  • The General Assembly meets at least once a year, approves the accounts and the annual programme, and elects the Board. The 2026 General Assembly was held on 5 September 2026 in Luxembourg.
  • The Board of Directors sets strategy, admits members, and oversees the secretariat and working groups.
  • An Advisory Council of senior figures from business, finance, diplomacy and development may be convened to advise the Board; Strategic Partners are considered for participation.
  • Thematic working groups (market entry, investment, institutional cooperation) are open to members by category.
