The Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI), in collaboration with the Czech-Italian Chamber of Commerce (CICC), held an extensive business meeting that brought together senior representatives from prominent companies and business leaders from Sharjah and various countries worldwide.
The meeting reflects the Sharjah Chamber’s commitment to strengthening economic cooperation with business communities and private sector entities across the globe, reinforcing the robust relations and strategic partnerships that the UAE shares with major global economies.
Held at SCCI’s headquarters, the meeting was attended by Fatema Khalifa Al Muqarrab, Director of SCCI’s International Relations Department, and Antonio Rotondo, Chairman of CICC. Also present were several officials and representatives of Sharjah’s government institutions and more than 20 companies specializing in key strategic sectors from the emirate and other countries worldwide, including BEEAH Group.
The event featured one-on-one business meetings, focusing on exploring partnerships, enhancing cooperation, and discussing available investment opportunities.
In a speech delivered at the forum, Fatima Khalifa Al Mokarrab extended a warm welcome to all attendees, reaffirming Sharjah Chamber’s commitment to advancing collaboration and partnerships with major global companies alongside investors and businessmen from around the world.
She underscored SCCI’s role in expanding economic connections between Sharjah’s business community and its counterparts in the world by organising business forums and networking events, which not only serve as vital platforms for unlocking investment opportunities but also facilitate promising partnerships with businesses and private sectors from around the world.
She said that signing the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Sharjah Chamber and the Czech-Italian Chamber of Commerce was a crucial step that led to this forum. The goal of the agreement is to build closer business ties, facilitate trade delegation exchanges, and showcase investment opportunities to major global businesses.
Highlighting Sharjah’s leading position on the global investment map, Fatima Al Mokarrab noted that Sharjah is ranked as the fifth fastest-growing city in the world for foreign direct investment, with investments reaching $2.75 billion. She attributed this success to the emirate’s strategic location, advanced infrastructure, and the government’s economic diversification policies.
Al Mokarrab added that the forum provides a valuable opportunity for business leaders and investors worldwide to explore Sharjah’s promising investment prospects across key sectors. This is complemented by the range of services and facilitation offered by the Sharjah Chamber for those seeking to invest in the emirate.
For his part, Antonio Rotondo commended the Sharjah Chamber for organising the forum, which he described as a true embodiment of the constructive and growing collaboration between SCCI and the Czech-Italian Chamber of Commerce. He noted that the event aims to strengthen trade relations and foster economic cooperation among business communities in both countries and beyond.
