In a strategic move to open new investment avenues and bolster international economic cooperation, the Libyan Business Council (LBC) hosted a high-level delegation from major Chinese companies this Monday morning, December 22, 2025, at its headquarters in Tripoli.
The delegation was led by the International Alliance of Economic and Commercial Counselors in China (ECCAC), in coordination with the Libyan-Chinese Council, signaling a strong mutual interest in deepening economic ties between the two nations.
Key Pillars of Partnership: Energy, Industry, and Infrastructure
The discussions went beyond protocol, focusing on actionable mechanisms to enhance the strategic partnership between the Libyan private sector and its Chinese counterparts. The agenda highlighted three vital sectors poised to drive development in the coming phase:
- Energy Sector: Exploring investment opportunities in renewable and alternative energy to modernize the local grid and align with global trends.
- Industrial Localization: Focusing on technology transfer and industrial investment to enhance the capacity and quality of local production.
- Real Estate & Infrastructure: Discussing major development projects aimed at urban modernization and infrastructure improvement across Libya.
Direct B2B Meetings
On the sidelines of the visit, a series of direct Business-to-Business (B2B) meetings were held, bringing together representatives of Chinese companies with Libyan business owners and member companies of the Council. These sessions provided an excellent platform for exchanging visions and identifying viable joint venture opportunities.
The event was attended by the Executive Management of the Libyan Business Council, the President of the Libyan-Chinese Council, and the Vice President of the Libyan Cooperative Company, adding significant executive weight to the discussions.
Future Steps: From Tripoli to Beijing
The meeting concluded with concrete outcomes, most notably the agreement to formalize and strengthen cooperation between ECCAC and the Libyan Business Council.
To translate these discussions into action, arrangements have commenced for a high-level Libyan trade delegation to visit the People’s Republic of China in the near future. This upcoming visit aims to expand the scope of trade exchange and activate the agreed-upon frameworks on the ground.
