The Luxembourg–Poland Chamber of Commerce (LPCC) is delighted to announce its General Assembly & Entrepreneurial Woman Project (EWP) Gala 2026 – an evening that brings together two of the Chamber’s most meaningful annual events.

📅 Monday, 23 November 2026
🕔 6:30 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.
📍Arendt & Medernach SA, 41 Av. John F. Kennedy, 2082 Kirchberg Luxembourg

Please note that this is a closed, by-invitation-only event.

This special occasion combines the LPCC General Assembly with the Grand Finale & Award Ceremony of the 12th edition of the Entrepreneurial Woman Project – a celebration of courage, innovation, and women bringing business ideas to life.

Advisory Board Meeting (5:00 – 6:00 p.m.)

Before the start of the General Assembly, the LPCC Advisory Board will convene for its traditional Advisory Board Meeting.

The Advisory Board plays a strategic and consultative role within the Chamber – reviewing the organisation’s ongoing projects, evaluating its position, and identifying new initiatives to strengthen the LPCC’s long-term development and impact. The meeting serves as a platform for strategic reflection and for setting priorities that will guide the organisation’s operational and community goals in the months ahead.

The General Assembly

As a non-profit organisation, the LPCC holds its General Assembly each year as part of its ongoing commitment to transparency, accountability, and member engagement.

During this session, we:

• Review the achievements of the current year
• Present the Chamber’s financial overview
• Discuss upcoming initiatives for the next year
• Vote on several important resolutions related to the organisation’s development

We warmly encourage the active participation of our members, whose engagement and feedback directly influence the Chamber’s growth and the direction it takes for the future.

The Entrepreneurship Women Project Gala

Immediately following the Assembly, the spotlight will turn to the Grand Finale of the 13th edition of the Entrepreneurship Woman Project (EWP), recognising women who have transformed ideas into successful, sustainable businesses.

The agenda will include a special guest speaker, an inspiring woman entrepreneur from Luxembourg and continue with the presentation of certificates to this year’s participants and the announcement of the recipients of the main EWP Awards.

The celebrations will conclude with a networking reception — a relaxed and engaging moment to exchange ideas, meet inspiring professionals, and celebrate success together.

Please note that this is a closed, by-invitation-only event.
