By Business Reporter — MUSCAT: MARCH 5 - Ithraa, Oman’s inward investment and export promotion agency, will lead a contingent of five high-profile organisations from the Sultanate including the Special Economic Zone Authority in Duqm (SEZAD); ASSAS; Khimji Ramdas; Port of Duqm and Oman Logistics Company (Khazaen) in an effort to connect with Indian investors looking for commercial opportunities in the sultanate.

The Omani delegation aims to raise awareness of investment opportunities in Oman and the support available for Indian companies considering the Sultanate, and provide an opportunity for business leaders from both nations to make important connections.

Organised in partnership with the Confederation of Indian Industry, the visit begins on March 6 in New Delhi where the delegation will hold B2B meetings with Indian companies all in an effort to develop new business opportunities. The Omani business delegation will also visit investors in Pune and Ahmedabad.

Commenting on the New Delhi, Pune and Ahmedabad visit, Alya al Hosni (pictured), Ithraa’s Director of Industrial Investment explained: “the calibre of Indian small to medium-sized enterprises has improved significantly over the past ten years and many are looking to enter the GCC market using Oman as their gateway. We’re particularly focused on attracting firms working in manufacturing, mining, petrochemicals and tourism.”
