THE LIBYAN INVESTMENT FORUM: AN EVENT NOT TO BE MISSED!

Libya is a nation in the process of a major transition. As it recovers from the devastation of the past year it will have a real need for foreign investors to contribute to both its reconstruction effort as well as major industries, such as its oil and gas sector. Libya is set to become a new global player in the world of business and commerce. The new Libyan Government aims to incorporate its recently released assets into a national recovery plan, diversifying the country's economy in a way that will allow it to prosper in a variety of forms. Both the government and the private sector are keen to succeed through the expansion of international private investment combined with increased market access.

If EU companies take advantage now and build strategic partnerships, there is a very real prospect of securing a lasting position in a growing and dynamic region.

Supported by the National Transitional Council (NTC), the Libyan Investment Forum to be held at the prestigious Corynthia Hotel in Tripoli on 19-21 March 2012 aims to mobilize private investment in line with Libya's economic recovery objectives. The Forum will comprise over 500 of the world's leading private companies. The key focus of the Forum will be linking investors and businesses wishing to operate in the country with leading public and private sector decision-makers with a developed understanding of the country's strategies. Companies will be given an invaluable insight into what new Libya will look like and sector specific requirements that are necessary for this development to occur. There will be a chance to hold one-to-one meetings with relevant decision-makers in government and the private sector.
