Iraq Business and Investment Conference to take place Aug. 28 to 30 in Dubai
Conference
(PortAl Iraq) - The Iraq Business and Investment Conference (IBIC) will take place at the Radisson SAS Hotel in Dubai on Aug. 28 to 30.
The first of three conferences, the first IBIC's attendees will include companies based in Southern Iraq looking for investors; entrepreneurs with plans to start a business in Southern Iraq; Iraqi government officials responsible for many aspects of investment in Iraq, including investment laws and publicly-private investment partnerships; and investors, both domestic and international, seeking opportunities to invest in businesses in Southern Iraq.
According to the U.S. Commercial Service of the U.S. Department of Commerce, the IBIC will be a venue for companies with clearly defined projects in need of outside financing to meet with qualified investors. Investment opportunities will range from smaller businesses in need of a minimum of $1 million in financing to large enterprises seeking $200 million. No specific industry is targeted. Instead, the conference is focused on clearly defined investment opportunities that are ready to move forward immediately.
The conference will also include discussions on the investment environment and related laws in Iraq. The second and third IBIC conferences will take place later this year and will focus on investment opportunities in Central and Northern Iraq.
