SUBJECT: BAHRAIN TO HOST IRAQ TRADE SHOW IN MARCH
1. Bahrain's Ministry of Industry and Commerce, in
cooperation with Iraq's Ministry of Trade, will sponsor the
first "Gulf Iraqi Expo 2007" in Manama, Bahrain March 24-26,
2007, at the Bahrain International Exhibition Center. The
event will feature an exhibition, conference, and
sector-specific meetings organized by the United Nations
Industrial Development Organization for business
participants, all focusing on business opportunities in Iraq.
2. The Embassy received a diplomatic note dated January 7,
2007, from the Iraqi Embassy in Bahrain requesting our
cooperation in promoting the event and inviting American
companies in the region to participate. We have alerted
AmCham Bahrain about the show and it is advising its
membership of the opportunity. Embassy believes promotion of
this event by other Embassies in the region, particularly in
the Gulf, would help make it a success.
