Marwan Hussain Al Shaali of Ajman Chamber attends 13th Arab-Hellenic Economic Forum held in Athens, Greece
A member of the board of directors of the Ajman Chamber, Marwan Hussein Al Shaali, attended the 13th Arab-Hellenic Economic Forum in Athens, Greece.
With an emphasis on fostering reciprocal investments in the energy and construction industries, the event sought to expand economic cooperation, boost the amount of Arab-Hellenic investments, and investigate collaboration options.
Officials and representatives from Greek and Arab governments and economic organizations attended the meeting, as did business executives, entrepreneurs, and professionals from the energy, construction, and allied industries.
Al Shaali praised the UAE-Greece relationship, highlighting the two nations’ shared commitment to expanding their areas of cooperation, boosting bilateral commerce, and encouraging investments.
He reaffirmed the Ajman Chamber’s commitment to strengthening and broadening collaboration with Greece and setting up upcoming gatherings between the Greek and Ajman business groups to foster the expansion of trade and reciprocal investments.
Al Shaali also emphasized the forum’s significance as a strategic platform for enhancing Arab-Hellenic economic ties, pointing out that the energy and construction industries are among the fastest-growing and most influential in fostering sustainable economic growth and expanding opportunities for joint investment.
He emphasized that both of these industries are strategically important in the United Arab Emirates, especially in Ajman, and that the emirate provides a favorable climate for the expansion of investment in these fields. This is because of Ajman’s advantageous location and cutting-edge infrastructure, which help investors and business owners achieve their goals.
Al Shaali went on to say that in 2023, the building, construction, and real estate industries accounted for 29% of Ajman’s GDP.
A number of sessions addressed a variety of subjects, such as “Successive Changes and Opportunities for Traditional Energy Alternatives,” “Electrical Interconnection Projects,” “Capabilities and Investment Opportunities in Energy,” “Green Energy Project Map,” “Clean Energy,” “Infrastructure and Construction Projects,” “Opportunities for Cooperation in Energy and Infrastructure Projects,” “Sustainability, Innovation, and Smart Technology in City Development and Future Cities,” in addition to “Green Buildings and Construction Industry Technologies.”
A number of bilateral talks between Al Shaali and representatives from Arab nations and Greek authorities were conducted on the fringes of the conference. The talks focused on measures to improve collaboration, increase investment prospects in the building and energy industries, and look into potential future bilateral forum arrangements.
