Nicosia, Cyprus. The Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Keve) announced the integration of the Cyprus International Businesses Association (CIBA) into its structure to strengthen collective representation of the business community at national level.
Integration and policy engagement
Keve said CIBA’s inclusion enhances the unified voice of businesses in Cyprus and reinforces dialogue and cooperation with policymakers. The chamber said the association’s accession contributes to shaping a stronger framework for engagement with policymakers, further enhancing cooperation between the private sector and the state.
CIBA’s role and member sectors
CIBA represents the international business community operating in Cyprus and plays an active role in promoting and safeguarding the sector’s interests. Its member companies operate across international business services and headquarters activities, as well as financial, accounting, legal and tax services.
They also operate in shipping and maritime services, technology, ICT, software and digital services, and investment and fund management. In addition, CIBA members provide corporate services supporting international structures, alongside research, innovation and advisory services.
Formalisation and outlook
The integration was formalised during a welcoming meeting held under the auspices of Keve, attended by representatives of both organisations. Keve said it welcomes CIBA and looks forward to constructive cooperation for the benefit of the business community.
The chamber said the move comes as CIBA continues to intensify its strategic outreach through a series of high-level agreements and partnerships.
