Briefing with the Director General of the
Sharjah Chamber of Commerce
Tuesday, June 14, 2011
The Bilateral US-Arab Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce that Hussain Mohammed Al Mahmoudi, Director General of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) will join us for a breakfast briefing to discuss business opportunities in Sharjah.
Sharjah is the third largest of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates and is the only one to have land on both the Arabian Gulf Coast and the Gulf of Oman. The thriving economic development of this Emirate is attributed to the attractive opportunities and the positive incentives that encourage businesses to invest in Sharjah.
To sustain its strong economy, the Emirate recognizes and promotes the growth of the private sector and welcomes foreign investment in the manufacturing, trade and service sectors. The introduction of policies that have eased investors' entry, the expansion of the Emirate’s free zones and investment in infrastructure have all contributed to its rapid and continuing economic growth. Sharjah has maintained good trading relations with a great number of countries around the world and vigorously pursues a policy of forging closer economic ties with new trading partners in the United States.
Prior to becoming the Director General of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Hussain Mohammed Al Mahmoudi held executive positions with the Emirates National Oil Company, Dubai Internet City, and The Royal Dutch Shell Group of Companies. He is the founder and Chairman of the Sharjah Tatweer Forum and also serves as the Chairman of the Emirates Business Council for Sustainable Development. His extensive experience throughout the UAE and in Sharjah offers an informative perspective on best practices and how to enter the marketplace as a small and medium sized enterprise.
