Starting in August 2026, AmCham Romania has joined the strategic partners of Ethical Media Alliance (EMA), supporting its mission to promote a local media ecosystem built around public-interest journalism.

"The values promoted by Ethical Media Alliance – public interest, support for journalism start-ups and access to accurate information – are aligned with the principles that define AmCham Romania’s work: integrity, transparency and responsibility. We believe that a competitive economy and a functioning democracy need strong institutions, independent media and constructive public dialogue. AmCham’s involvement in initiatives that strengthen trust – an essential condition for a competitive economy and for attracting investment – is possible with the support of our members, whom we thank on this occasion," said Letiția Pupăzeanu, Executive Director, AmCham Romania.

"We are honored that AmCham Romania has decided to join us in this mission. It is an achievement and a confirmation that we are on a difficult, but right and necessary path. We are not only talking about one of the most important business organizations in Romania, but about an organization founded by investors from the country that established freedom of expression and freedom of the press as fundamental values of modern democracy. The partnership with AmCham is a strong signal of the importance of a healthy media ecosystem for economic and democratic development," added Dragoș Stanca, founder of Ethical Media Alliance.

We launched the partnership by sharing with the EMA network the findings of the 2026 AmCham Analysis on the Economic Relations between Romania and the United States of America.
