Hong Kong, July 22, 2025 — The Cambodia Chamber of Commerce (CCC) has hailed the success of its recent participation in the “Battery Show Asia 2025 – Mobility Tech Asia” exhibition held in Hong Kong from July 14–18. The delegation, led by CCC Vice-President and Koh Kong Provincial Chamber President Chang Chivinh, included 17 business representatives who explored investment opportunities and promoted Cambodia’s growing appeal as a business destination.
The exhibition brought together over 15,000 industry professionals, 150 guest speakers, and more than 350 booths representing the latest in battery technology, energy storage solutions, electric and hybrid vehicle (EV/HV) innovation, and mobility technologies. Co-hosted with Mobility Tech Asia and Data Center Asia, the event provided valuable insight into interconnected industries shaping the future of green mobility and clean energy.
The CCC emphasized that their participation served to spotlight Asia’s strategic importance in energy-related industries while allowing the Cambodian delegation to network with global technology leaders and investors.
In addition to exploring exhibition showcases, the CCC team held key business meetings with regional and international stakeholders. These included discussions with Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE), Budi Setiyadi of Indonesia’s AISMOLI (Electric Motorcycle Manufacturers Association), Judy Saw of Singapore’s DDAS Digital Company, Chinese electronics manufacturer HONGFA, and technology firms Equinix and Zenlayer.
During the meetings, Chang Chivinh highlighted Cambodia’s compelling advantages as an investment destination—political stability, investor-friendly laws, an abundant labour force, competitive energy pricing, improving infrastructure, and duty-free access to key global markets. According to CCC, the dialogues were productive, with all parties expressing keen interest in establishing partnerships or expanding their presence in Cambodia.
“Through these meetings, both parties exchanged and shared information on investment potential and opportunities. All parties showed positive perceptions toward Cambodia’s business environment, expressing interest and consideration in forming partnerships and expanding investments into the country,” the CCC stated.

Chivinh reaffirmed the chamber’s readiness to assist international companies looking to invest in Cambodia by offering facilitation services and ongoing support throughout the investment process.
The participation at the Battery Show formed part of the CCC’s broader 2025 Hong Kong Trade Mission, organized in collaboration with global exhibition organizer Informa Markets. The initiative aims to boost exposure for Cambodian businesses at leading international trade events while fostering business linkages and global cooperation.
The CCC’s efforts come amid a broader positive investment climate for Cambodia. According to a July 7 report by the Council for the Development of Cambodia (CDC), the first half of 2025 saw a record 373 investment projects approved, representing a capital inflow of approximately USD 5.8 billion and the creation of over 255,000 jobs.
This marks a significant increase compared to the same period in 2024, with 183 more projects approved and a rise in investment capital of around USD 2.5 billion—a 77% year-on-year surge.
Sector-wise, manufacturing and industrial projects led with USD 4.2 billion in approved capital. Agriculture and agro-industrial projects attracted USD 130 million, while tourism-related investments totalled USD 20 million. An additional USD 1.5 billion was approved for other sectors.
China remained the top foreign investor, accounting for 56.23% of all approved projects. Other major investors included Cambodia (29.76%), Singapore (7.72%), and Vietnam (3.01%). Investments also originated from the UK, USA, South Korea, and offshore financial centres like the British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, and Samoa.
The CCC’s active international engagement, coupled with Cambodia’s improved regulatory environment and infrastructure, signals the Kingdom’s growing relevance in emerging technologies, clean energy, and sustainable mobility. With momentum building, Cambodia is positioning itself as a serious player in Asia’s evolving investment landscape.
