Pakistan and China further strengthened their economic ties when the 2nd Pakistan-China B2B Investment Conference in Beijing ended with record performance. The controversial event resulted in 21 joint venture agreements worth $ 1.5 billion and more than 100 mous of more than $ 7 billion, which pushed the total value of signed deals to $ 8.5 billion in just one day.
The conference, organized by the Pakistan embassy in Beijing, together with his consulates in Chengdu, Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Shanghai, facilitated 2,500-3,000 composite B2B meetings over 9 sectors and 40 subsectors.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, accompanied by Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, attended both the opening and closing ceremonies. In his speech, the Prime Minister praised China’s economic success, re-confirmed Pakistan to bilateral cooperation and insured full facilitation, safety and follow-up on all signed agreements.
The success of the event was supported by the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), Board of Investment, Ministry of Commerce, Ministry of Industry and Provincial departments.
Building at the momentum of last year’s inaugural edition in Shenzhen, this year’s conference introduced sector -specific pitch books, guidelines and online orientation sessions to guarantee targeted results and effective matchmaking.
