With almost 600 members, the German-Thai Chamber of Commerce is one of the largest foreign chambers of commerce in Thailand. With various events and activities, which are organized by GTCC or in cooperation with our members, we are actively engaged in supporting our members and business contacts throughout the year.
Our events offer you access to top-class speakers, deep insights into the industry and extensive opportunities for networking with the German-Thai business world. Our guests include member companies, industry experts, legal advisors, policy makers and high-ranking political representatives from Thailand and Germany.
Our experienced event team is looking forward to working closely with you and is always keen to tailor the various events to the needs of our members.
Content Events
Breakfast Talk
The Breakfast Talks are usually held by the GTCC itself or in cooperation with other chambers. The discussions and presentations aim to gain a deeper insight into a specific topic, inform about new business opportunities and highlight best practices. Breakfast Talks are open for event partnerships with companies that are interested in presenting their products and services in a topic-related format.
Business Luncheon
The Business Luncheons are usually organized by GTCC itself or in cooperation with other chambers. The discussions and presentations are held over a lunch and address subjects such as trade, economy but also political aspects that are relevant for German and Thai companies. The speakers are usually high-ranking representatives from the business community or politics.
Seminar/ Workshops/ Briefings
Throughout the year GTCC organizes seminars and workshops on current and relevant topics related to trade and business. Our network comes together to exchange ideas and to receive new insights on contemporary issues from industry experts and business representatives.
Another format organized by the GTCC is Briefings, which are held at regular intervals, either independent or in conjunction with an Afterwork Networking in Bangkok or an ESB Event in Pattaya. These Briefings address current and relevant topics from various industries represented by GTCC members.
