Understanding our mandate, governance, and institutional framework for bilateral economic cooperation
The Syrian German Business Council (SGBC) is the official platform established to develop, facilitate, and accelerate economic and trade cooperation between Syria and Germany. We bring together companies, sector institutions, and relevant stakeholders to convert opportunities into structured engagement—through dialogue, matchmaking, delegations, and practical facilitation. SGBC operates within the formal Syrian framework for joint business councils with international partners, working to strengthen commercial ties, promote investment and joint projects, and create an effective bridge between the private sectors of both countries.
SGBC is established under the formal framework for bilateral business councils in Syria, with a mandate to serve as the primary institutional channel for Syria-Germany economic engagement. This mandate is rooted in the broader system through which Syria organizes joint business cooperation with key international partners.
Our mandate includes:
Our Philosophy
Our vision and message define the direction we move towards and the values that shape our decisions.
To serve as a trusted platform for strengthening economic and technical cooperation between Syria and Germany.
To contribute to practical and sustainable partnerships based on the exchange of knowledge, expertise, and new opportunities for both sides.
To provide an effective framework that brings institutions, professionals, and impactful initiatives closer together.
The Syrian-German Business Council believes in the importance of building effective bridges of cooperation between companies and institutions in Syria and Germany, founded on trust, mutual respect, and the complementarity of interests and expertise. In this spirit, the Council welcomes all initiatives that can strengthen direct communication and open new horizons for practical cooperation between both sides. The Council also places its experience and network at the service of supporting serious projects and facilitating the exchange of knowledge, talents, and ideas in a way that creates sustainable added value for both parties. Its vision remains centered on encouraging high-quality partnerships capable of moving steadily from dialogue to achievement.
