Networking is especially important for startup businesses. And the AGBC provides perfect opportunities.

Thomas Hüpper, 4 Questions to Thomas

I would encourage others to join because of the exceptionally welcoming community. Despite the name it is also a very international group, which I always appreciate.

Eleanor Mayrhofer, 4 Questions to Eleanor

Why join? I guess the variety of individuals in the club to interact with  opens up a broad set of views, experiences, mindsets to connect with.

The AGBC has personally helped me to bring various spheres of my life together – making me a more balanced and well-rounded person in the process as well as giving me a stronger sense of home in a city I am still getting to know better.

Charlotte von Harsdorf, 4 Questions to Charlie

The club helped me, when I was looking to meet business people based in Munich and to develop my local connections.

Jennifer Canale, 4 Questions to Jennifer

It is a genuine business network where people give you a chance to really get to know them. Members are authentic, curious, and willing to listen. The events are dynamic and cover a wide range of interests. I leave each event feeling energized.

Benjamin Davis, 4 Questions to Ben

The AGBC gives me that international flavour that Munich (sometimes) is missing.  Networking and making new friends at its best.

AGBC is an excellent platform to meet people with similar interests from various backgrounds, all working together to foster collaboration across the Atlantic and to develop the local business environment.

Tara Nicoll, 4 Questions to Tara

I met couple of AGBC members during my first days in Munich and they were very supportive, referring me to a number of people that could help me get my feet on the ground. This helped me a lot at the time

Dan Norenberg, 4 questions to Dan

The reason I would recommend AGBC to others is the network that exists within this club (the chance to meet a variety of people from different working sectors, different nationalities).

Takuya Kamiyama, 4 questions to Takuya

I would recommend the AGBC to anyone looking to connect with a supportive and diverse community of business professionals. The AGBC events offer a unique opportunity to learn from many interesting people, including key business leaders. Highly recommended.

Who we are and what we do

The American-German Business Club was started in the 1960’s by a group of American businessmen. The Club grew quickly and before long, there were many chapters in several German cities.

AGBC Munich Chapter is now by far the largest one. We have a very engaged community of over 250 members.

Members consist of business people, both business owners and employees as well as students, from a variety of nations and professions. Some have been in the Munich area for many years, others moved only recently and joined the club to learn about, and meet the international community.

Through our members, we are well connected to many small and (very) large businesses in the area, as well as universities and cultural institutions.
