AmCham position on the Act on Cybersecurity

The Czech Government is to address the proposed Act on Cybersecurity. Members of the American Chamber of Commerce are concerned that, as currently proposed, the act will increase costs without commensurate improvements in security and will make investing into secure systems less predictable for public authorities and companies providing strategic services for the economy and population. We would request the Government delay passage to consider further the consequences of the act on national security and public finance.

AmCham Tourism Council met with Jiří Pos to discuss Prague Airport plans

AmCham Tourism Council met with Jiří Pos, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Václav Havel Airport Prague to discuss future plans and priorities of the airport . The airport is an essential piece of infrastructure for an innovative economy.
