Austrian Trade Mission to the Asian Development Bank

The Austrian Embassy - Commercial Section has organized a Trade Mission held last 24 – 26 October 2011 to the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in Manila. The Mission included a visit to the World Bank and the International Finance Corporation. The delegation, led by Mr. Reinhold Lopatka from the Austrian Chamber of Commerce (WKÖ) and Mr. Volker Amman of the WKÖ Singapore Office, was composed of 8 companies with 13 participants.

The Trade Mission provided an opportunity for the Austrian companies to get an overview of the ADB operations, learn about ways to participate in ADB projects, and individually engage with ADB focal persons for specific projects. It also allowed the companies to gather more insights about the activities, operations, and projects of the World Bank and the International Finance Corporation in the Philippines.
