Dear Members,

Wish you a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year 2022!!

2022 has brought lots of hope, along with a new wave of restrictions. New ways of coping up are, as well, emerging.

Countries are becoming resilient and overcoming the challenge. India is already on the path of sound recovery with 8.4%+ projected GDP growth rate in the short terms. It is expected that partner countries of India shall experience a pull-effect and benefit from this recovery. This opens up opportunities for Luxembourg, given the ever-growing political ties between India and Luxembourg at the Prime Ministerial level over the last two years.

Plans for 2022

IBCL kick-started its in-person event last November with all paid bowling-cum-dinner event. This was followed by an in-person event on sharing experiences on overcoming Supply-chain challenges during the pandemic times. More deliberations shall follow in 2022 on the similar topics. Our focus shall continue to be on in-person events with our 13th Anniversary event planned in March.

Once 3G certificates roll out is completed in Luxembourg, we could organise events without mandatory use of masks or maintaining a 2 meter-distance all the time.

This year, we have introduced the concept of the ‘Corporate of the Quarter’ where each of our Corporate Member shall have an opportunity to nominate themselves and suggest a theme for the Quarter. Once selected, they shall have the flexibility to plan, design events under IBCL banner with logistics support from IBCL. The event shall be so designed to disseminate knowledge around an industry or subject rather than promoting a particular product or brand. No payment would be required to participate.

The theme under consideration for Q1 is ‘Environment, Society and Governance’. Ideas are welcome for Q2, Q3 and Q4.

We are working on reviving our annual gala event of musical Diwali and dance event for members to interact in a family setup while experiencing the culinary, cultural, and musical heritage of India and Luxembourg.

Our website is undergoing a transformation to be more dynamic and responsive. Regular posts shall be made with curated news on business, regulatory updates, upcoming webinars, major international tenders, and economic history to help have a wholistic understanding of business counterparts.

Renewal of Membership

To finalize our planned activities, we are renewing Membership for the year 2022. The annual renewal fee has been kept at 75% of the regular fees. The reduced scale is:

Corporate Member:    € 618.75
SME Member:            € 300.00
Individual Member:     € 112.50

We would appreciate payment by February 15, 2022. In case any member needs a longer time, they could keep us posted over radhika@ibcl.lu before January 31, and we shall be glad to standby and support them.

We are also sharing online Google form link to keep the list of contact persons regularly updated. This would ensure effective communication from our end and no benefits are missed out by the members.
