The nuclear agreement has given Iran and Britain the opportunity to make a historic break with the past and marks the beginning of a new era in their relationship. This opens the door to economic re-engagement in the form of involvement by British companies in a range of sectors in Iran, including infrastructure, oil & gas and financial services. However, British companies need to understand a range of issues if they are to position themselves successfully and ensure that they have the best chance of winning contracts. The due diligence required includes a solid grasp of the political, economic and legal situation, as well as an understanding of the business culture and the practicalities of doing business in Iran. City & Financial’s timely 'Iranian Trade Conference – New Prospects for British-Iranian Trade and Investment' (followed by a half day workshop) is being held in London on 11th and 12th April and will provide delegates with an in-depth understanding of these key issues, as well as an analysis of the business opportunities in the infrastructure, oil & gas and financial services sectors, both in terms of export potential and direct investment. Delegates will also be able to network with companies from Iran and with major UK and international contractors looking to build their supply chain as they bid for key contracts there. We are delighted that Mark Price,CVO, Minister of State for Trade and Investment Elect H.M. Govt., will give the first keynote address at the conference, while the second will be delivered by the Rt. Hon. Lord Lamont of Lerwick, UK Trade Envoy to Iran and Chairman, The British-Iranian Chamber of Commerce. UKTI is also supporting this event.
Key topics include:
CEOs, Managing Directors, Chief Operating Officers, Chief Financial Officers, Chief Strategy Officers, Chief Risk Officers, Vice Presidents of Corporate Communications, Compliance Directors, Heads of EMEA, Heads of Middle East, Heads of International Operations, Sanctions Advisors from global, medium and small companies across infrastructure, oil & gas and finance sectors; investment banks, private equity and asset management companies, law firms, embassies, trade organisations, chambers of commerce, government bodies and academia in the UK and globally
