A celebration of 30 years of European solidarity

We could not have imagined a better way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the NCCC Traders by Nature. European solidarity is more needed than ever, and we all stand strong with our fellow Europeans in Ukraine.
 
We aspire to connect people to create sustainable positive impact together. During our 30 years of European solidarity event at Impact Hub on 10 May, the Ukrainian-Czech Chamber of Commerce was founded with our help and support. UKRCHAM will play an important role in strengthening economic ties between Ukraine and the Czech Republic, rebuild the country and firmly embed it in Europe.
You can read the press release about the foundation of UKRCHAM here.
Have a look at the pictures and a short after movie of the event.
 
During the festive evening, several items were put up for auction, such as an F1 Red Bull Racing cap, signed by Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, the 2022 Olympic speed skating suit and sports bag of Martina Sablíková, the well-known “Virus” and “Protein” artworks by Jan Kaláb, and many more. A tombola that was much supported by our members was part of the festive evening as well. The proceeds of the evening will be donated to the benefit of Ukrainian people and business.
 
We thank our partners who made our 30th anniversary such a memorable event, with hopefully positive impact for many years to come: Impact Hub, ING, Albert, Dialog Media, Shell, Heineken, Zátiší Fresh & Tasty, NN, Philips, KLM, XR Leaders and Trebitsch Czech Whisky.
