In order to emphasize this fact, the entire property of the Association was transferred to the Chamber on the last, liquidation General Assembly held on 11 January 2007. The Economic Chamber associates twice as much members and is an obligatory partner for executive and legislative authorities. Thanks to that, we can act for interests of the whole industry in an incomparably more efficient manner.
