# Ambassador Club — Balkan Circle (ACBC)

> An institutional, curated business platform connecting senior decision-makers, investors, and entrepreneurs across eight Balkan markets. Headquartered in Thessaloniki, Greece. "Institution before transaction."

## What we are

ACBC is a Greek non-profit civil law company (Αστική Μη Κερδοσκοπική Εταιρεία) registered as GEMI 191899806000, founded 27 February 2026. We are not a chamber of commerce, not a public body, and not a social network. We are a trust-generating mechanism that reduces uncertainty in cross-border Balkan business through structured dialogue, selective membership, and a quarterly high-level reception programme.

## Markets

Greece, North Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, Cyprus.

## Four core principles

- Institutional credibility — economic cooperation must operate within a clearly defined institutional framework.
- Selective quality over mass participation — admission is institutional fit, not social access.
- Structured dialogue, not ad-hoc interaction — interaction is deliberate, curated, purpose-driven.
- Trust as strategic capital — in cross-border environments, trust is not a soft value but a strategic asset.

## Membership

- Annual fee: 300 EUR.
- April 2026 introductory offer: first 20 members 150 EUR (50% off).
