For many years now China is the leading emerging economy and its economic performance in the recent years has been impressive by most standards. Rapid economic growth in China has created an increasing demand for infrastructure and hence it is now one of the fastest developing infrastructure investment markets in the world.

Better investment opportunities are being provided for foreign companies as the government has expanded the scope and increased the number of pilot projects for foreign investment in the sectors of finance, insurance, commerce, foreign trade and telecommunications. Foreign ventures in china now enjoy expanded operation sphere, increased financial support from the Chinese government, preferential treatment in technical development and innovation, as well as better administration and service from the government.

China and Kuwait can benefit from building closer economic ties with each other. Chinese companies are already playing a key role in the development of infrastructure and real estate projects across the Middle East. And likewise Kuwait is also making huge investments in China and starting to play a vital role in their various investment and other fields
CHINA - KUWAIT INVESTMENT FORUM 2008
25th-26th May, 2008
Kuwait
 

There has been immense encouragement from His Highness the Amir - Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah and His Highness the Prime Minister - Sheikh Nasser Al Muhammed Al Ahmed Al Sabah to transform Kuwait into a distinct commercial and financial centre and they are supporting and providing instructions for the Kuwaiti private sector to be launched to various global markets, especially the Asian markets which has the fastest growing economies in the world.

Given the role that could be played by the private sector in supporting economic relations between China and Kuwait, WAY COMMUNICATIONS decided to organize the first forum for Chinese investment - "China - Kuwait First Investment Forum" under the patronage of – His Excellency - Faisal Mohammad Al Hajji - the Deputy Prime Minister and State Minister for Cabinet Affairs, along with the support of both the Chinese Council for the Promotion of Trade (CCPIT) and China - Arab Joint Chamber of Commerce (CAJCC), which is the first of its kind in Kuwait. The forum will be held in two phases: the first phase will be held in Kuwait in 25-26 May 2008, while the second phase will be in China in 15 - 16 December of this year in both Beijing and Shanghai.
 

Phase I – Kuwait – May 2008

It aims to define to the Kuwaiti investors, whether from government or private sector, the conditions and environment and investment opportunities available in China through comprehensive presentation of all the information that is important to them and which is related to the different economic sectors in most Chinese provinces that is currently spotlighted by the Chinese government and granted with many encouraging privileges that foreign companies rush to invest in.

This Phase also endeavors to define to the participating Chinese companies, the investment climate in Kuwait and the investment opportunities available as many of these companies have a genuine desire to invest in the Gulf region. This is in the light of the increasing volume of investment opportunities offered by the government projects under construction.

Phase II - China (Beijing & Shanghai) - December 2008

In this phase, a Kuwaiti delegation representing members of the Kuwait Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the government and private sectors will visit China and hold official meetings and field visits to various sectors and meet senior executives of targeted Chinese companies in both cities, Beijing and Shanghai. Special meetings will be organized in other districts at the request of the Kuwaiti companies.

The Kuwaiti delegation will be invited to a gala dinner in order to meet up with a number of representatives of Chinese companies. Here, an opportunity to explain and review most prominent features of the Kuwaiti economy and the available investment opportunities to foreign companies will be available.
