ABOUT OUR COMMITTEE

Our committee focuses on matters relating to alternative investments and FDI (both inward and outward), including M&A, greenfield investments, private equity, venture capital, and emerging technologies (such as digital assets, space, and biotech), hedge funds, carbon markets and green energy, commodities, real estate, infrastructure and other investment strategies (such as ESG, IP rights, art and antiques), as well as impacts from the overall macroeconomic, geopolitical and regulatory environments.

We organize events for ACCJ members, including in collaboration with other chambers of commerce or organizations, and engage in advocacy related to alternative investments and FDI.

The AFDI Committee was formed by the merger of the Alternative Investment and Foreign Direct Investment Committees in July 2023.

Our committee is open to any ACCJ member.
