Sharjah 24: His Excellency Abdullah Sultan Al Owais, Chairman of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI), hosted a high-level Italian delegation on Thursday, in SCCI's offices, led by Donatella Tesei, President of the Umbria Region.
The two sides discussed ways to strengthen co-operation in cultural, scientific, intellectual, and technological areas, as well as the potential of commercial cooperation between Sharjah's investment institutions and their Italian counterparts.
His Excellency Al Owais emphasised SCCI's desire in strengthening relations between Sharjah and the Italian region, along with exchanging information, data, and experiences between the two parties, suggesting to host an annual forum in Sharjah to explore available investment prospects.
Donatella Tesei expressed her delight at visiting Sharjah, which starts off her first tour to the UAE following her election, citing Sharjah's pioneering reputation at all levels, particularly in the cultural and knowledge economies.
She highlighted her country's desire to collaborate with Sharjah via the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in a variety of investment industries, most notably information technology.
To have a better understanding of both the economic and cultural aspects of the Italian region and to exchange knowledge and information, she invited SCCI to visit the Italian region and pay a visit to the Italian pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai.
