Pacific Islands Trade & Invest invites you to the inaugural Pacific Islands Investment Summit.

This summit is hosted by Pacific Islands Trade & Invest in conjunction with Business Advantage International and Informa.

This is the first regional event to explore the investment potential that exists across the Pacific Islands including the 14 nations of the Pacific Islands Forum as well as East Timor and the US and French Territories.

This is an exciting and critical time in the Pacific. Some of the largest projects ever to be undertaken in the Pacific Islands region are just getting underway, eg the PNG LNG project and the relocation of US military forces to Guam. With these huge projects there are the obvious opportunities in engineering and associates services, as well as many other indirect areas of opportunity resulting from the inevitable economic growth, such as construction, retail, accommodation, transport and many more.

As you can see from THE PROGRAM, as well as examining the exciting regional investment opportunities in such diverse sectors as telecommunications, transport, agriculture and tourism, this essential investor’s summit will discuss events and policies that will impact investment decisions in the region in the coming economic cycle including trade negotiations, political stability and the emergence of Asian investment in the region.

We at Pacific Islands Trade & Invest encourage you attend by REGISTERING THROUGH THIS LINK and we look forward to seeing you there.
