The forum’s primary goals, which include stimulating growth in Gulf-Iraqi trade and investment relations, amplifying joint investments, and raising the trade exchange value between the interested parties, were discussed by both sides.

The warm welcome that Al Owais gave to the Iraqi delegation highlighted the strong links and kinship that the UAE and Iraq share. He also highlighted the strong economic and commercial ties that exist between Iraq and the GCC nations, particularly the UAE and the Emirate of Sharjah.

A number of panel talks on important subjects, including food security, agriculture, banking and financial services, investments, energy generation, infrastructure development, healthcare, youth empowerment, higher education, and vocational training, are on the program for the event.

Additionally present at the meeting were Mohammad Ahmed Amin Al Awadi, Director-General of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI), Abdulaziz Mohammed Shattaf, Assistant Director-General of the Sharjah Chamber’s Communication and Business Sector, and Fatima Khalifa Al-Muqrab, Director of the Chamber’s International Relations Department.
