Iran’s economy in the spotlight this month

The inaugural Focus Iran Summit will begin on 26th September, 2016 at the Espinas Palace Hotel in Tehran. The two-day investment summit aims to bring together several eminent names from the world of business, who will all discuss strategies on how to take Iran ahead on a global scale.

Furthermore, the summit has managed to attract a lot of interest from organizations overseas, who are confident of Iran’s huge investment potential receiving the most appropriate mileage from keen foreign investors. For instance, Sohar Port & Freezone is surveying its plans to expand business in the coming months with Iran. Anders Kron, commercial manager Middle East, Sohar Port & Freezone, said, “As Iran reopens for international business, SOHAR is ideally placed as the region’s fastest growing Port and Freezone, outside the Strait of Hormuz and within only a short sailing distance of many Iranian ports. Fast developing as a major regional hub for food, logistics, metals and petrochemicals, at SOHAR we see huge opportunities in partnering with Iranian businesses across many sectors. We are excited about the upcoming Focus Iran Summit in Tehran and are looking forward to connecting with the many Iranian companies and senior executives scheduled to attend.”

Anders Kron will be present at the Focus Iran Summit to present his views on how Sohar Port & Freezone plans to ramp up investments in the region.
The friendly and encouraging response has also stoked the interest of the local companies, who are keen on networking with representatives from strong markets such as Europe, Middle East, Far East and Russia. Dr. Siamak Goudarzi, CEO, Open Iran Group, which is also the co-organizer of the event, said, “Focus Iran Summit is connecting people with a real thrust to conduct business with Iran. Speakers will basically answer how this can be achieved. Solely, the networking opportunities provided by the event are unique it as they are focused, informal and effective.”
