Rebuilding Iraq: Challenges and Opportunities for Business

Iraqi Minister of Public Works to be the speaker at AIM Policy Center Globalization Lecture Policy Center

What is the role of the private sector in rebuilding Iraq? How will the security environment affect the delivery of goods and services? What are the major challenges, pitfalls, and opportunities available for Filipino and international businesses in stepping up efforts to rebuild institutions and modernize infrastructure in this war-torn land?

These are some of the questions to be asked in the 32nd installment of the AIM Policy Center’s Globalization Lecture Series entitled Rebuilding Iraq: Challenges and Opportunities for Business at the Quezon Ballroom of the Makati Shangri-La Hotel on May 3, 2004, Monday, 2:00 to 4:00 pm.

Participants will have the opportunity to gain valuable insights on the likely security and political challenges companies will encounter in doing business in Iraq, as well as valuable information on the commercial developments and potential business and networking opportunities in the country.

Her Excellency Nesreen M. Sideek-Barwari, Minister of Municipalities and Public Works of the Iraqi Governing Council, shall be the distinguished speaker for this timely and vital subject matter.

The event is being sponsored by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation. It is FREE of charge.
