The American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) in Mongolia successfully organized the 7th annual U.S. Doorknock to Washington, D.C., from June 7-9, 2023. Since 2014, AmCham Mongolia has hosted an annual U.S. Trade Mission (Doorknock) to foster trade ties between Mongolia and the United States. During AmCham Mongolia's annual Doorknock, business executives from the organization's membership and the country's larger business community can interact with a variety of influential Washington, D.C. policymakers and promote Mongolia as a potential location for American investment. The Doorknock visit effectively gives participants a more realistic understanding of the business climate in Mongolia and gives them the chance to have conversations about larger-scale cooperation. This year's Doorknock delegation featured 15 top executives from American, foreign, and Mongolian companies such as MIK, Sendly NBFI JSC, Faro Foundation, ONDO, Trade and Development Bank, Capitron Bank, Altai Holding, Melville & Erdenedalai LLP, and Seruun Group. The trade mission was led by the US Ambassador to Mongolia, Richard Buangan, and the leadership of AmCham Mongolia. Housing, fintech, legal, trade, banking, and financial services, as well as telecommunications, digital transformation, and HVAC service providers, were non-mining sectors represented in this year's Doorknock diverse delegation, which US stakeholders appreciated in terms of Mongolia's economic diversification.

2022 has been mixed for the business environment, with recovery witnessed in some sectors, but the border bottleneck and Zero-Covid policy in China and emerging geopolitical challenges have brought additional issues to the country. Mongolia is facing shrinking foreign exchange reserves, a skyrocketing inflation rate, and limited foreign investments. Nevertheless, with the reopening of the economy in the Post-Covid19 context, AmCham Mongolia rolled out full-scale activities, organizing numerous events, vigorously engaging with stakeholders, undertaking focused policy advocacy efforts, representing the interests of members, and advocating for the organization’s values: promotion of a private sectorled economy, the free market, and free enterprise in Mongolia. A couple of highlights of our innovative initiatives include: organizing the first-ever in-country Doorknock, engaging with government stakeholders and presenting the Three Pillars for Positive Change policy statement; hosting ICT Week, bringing global digital businesses to the country; undertaking a popular tree planting corporate social responsibility initiative with the participation of around 100 volunteers; and up-scaling AmCham’s communications strategy and media exposure.
