Featuring high-level officials and ministers, the forum presented an insight into the country’s economic landscape and development and provided an outlook on investment prospects with special focus on Economy & Investment, Transport and Tourism. The forum also served as an interactive platform for thorough discussions on the plentiful scopes of cooperation and public-private sector partnerships among Austrian, Egyptian and international counterparts.

Mr. Yehia Zaki, Chairman of the Suez Canal Economic Zone, and H.E. Dr. Khaled Hanafy, Secretary-General of the Union of Arab Chambers (UAC) and former Minister of Supply and Internal Trade of the Arab Republic of Egypt.

 

 

Among the panelists were high-ranking representatives of the following prominent institutions and companies: the Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZONE), The Sovereign Fund of Egypt, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), the Industrial Development Authority - Egypt, the Egyptian Ministry of Trade and Industry, the Egyptian-Austrian Business Council, WKO - Advantage Austria Cairo, Siemens Mobility, Plasser & Theurer, the Governorate of the Red Sea, the Austrian Travel Association / Österreichischer ReiseVerband (ÖRV), and Egyptair Airlines.

Dr. Khaled Hanafy, and AACC Secretary-General Mr. Mouddar Khouja respectively.
