Upcoming Events
Dear ABC Members,
The world-wide phenomenon of the Covid-19 pandemic has not spared our South African shores and is rapidly spreading.
President Cyril Ramaphosa has in his address to the nation called on all of us to assist in curbing the spread of this disease and to limit the impact on human life and the South African economy.
In this spirit, the Board of Directors of the Austrian Business Chamber has decided to cancel events until further notice.
In the meantime, please stay safe and follow the government guidelines, in particular with regard to washing hands and social distancing. We know that social distancing is not in the nature of Austrians and our members, but extraordinary times require extraordinary measures.
Take care of yourselves, we hope to see you soon again.
With best regards,
Christian Neuberger
Chairman
