About

The decision to launch the Italy Myanmar Business Association (IMBA) came from the realization among a few Italian professionals in Yangon and in conversations with the Italian Embassy in Myanmar, that additional on-the-ground support would be beneficial to the growth of trade and investment relationships between the two countries. 

At this moment, the relationships between the two countries are positive, but there is still a great opportunity for growth. 

IMBA aims to be the supporting and reinforcing platform for the growing commercial and investment relationships between Myanmar and Italy.

Becoming a Member of IMBA offers an exclusive opportunity to reach leading companies and organizations across many different sectors in both Myanmar and Italy.

IMBA provides its Myanmar Members with a first-hand environment to connect with Italian Companies that are potential suppliers in leading industries and to the Italian and European consumer market. Moreover, IMBA offers Italian Members with insightful information on the market and access to networks needed to successfully do business in Myanmar and understand the rapidly changing landscape.

Mission

IMBA wants to position itself at the heart of trade and investment relationship between Italy and Myanmar, through the provision of effective, timely and professional value-added services.

Vision

To be a leader in providing Italian and Myanmar businesses with the market intelligence, access, and understanding necessary to foster the relationship between the two countries.
