Cambonomist, WorldBridge Partner to Facilitate Trade and Investment Dialogue
AKP Phnom Penh, August 12, 2025 --
Cambonomist, a digital media agency specialising in business news and community networking in Cambodia, partnered with WorldBridge Group, a prominent logistics company, to host the “Navigating Trade and Investment (NTI) 2025” forum to facilitate strategic dialogue on trade and investment amid global economic shifts.
Held on Aug. 11 at the Shangri-La Hotel in Phnom Penh, the forum brought together prominent business leaders, entrepreneurs, and economic experts to exchange insights and reflect on Cambodia’s key economic policies.
Cambonomist Founder and CEO Mr. Soeun Say noted that Cambodia is navigating unprecedented global shifts, driven by digitalisation, geopolitical tensions, fragmentation into blocs, and an intensifying trade war, and all of these present serious challenges to business and daily life.
Mr. Soeun Say and Neak Oknha Sear Rithy, Chairman of the Board of Directors of WorldBridge Group, described the forum as a critical platform for public and private sector experts to engage in meaningful dialogue and contribute solutions to Cambodia’s and the world’s economic challenges.
The forum discussed a wide range of pressing topics, including the resilience and growth of ASEAN’s agriculture sector, strategies for investment and wealth preservation in a volatile global economy, and the impact of U.S. tariffs and global trade reform.
Enhancing food supply chains for future growth, the rise of digital currencies and the future of global finance, and the role of innovation in boosting competitiveness within Cambodia’s tourism sector were also among the key focused discussions.
Senior Minister in charge of Special Missions (Multilateral Trade and Economic Affairs) H.E. Dr. Sok Siphana, who served as both speaker and moderator at the forum, emphasised the importance of these discussions in shaping a framework for Cambodia’s economic resilience.
