The Qatar and Turkish Izmir chambers held a recent meeting to discuss ways to enhance co-operation links and enhance trade and investment exchange, as well as explore the investment climate in both countries.
The meeting was held between Qatar Chamber first vice-chairman Mohamed bin Towar al-Kuwari, and Adnan Bozbay, a member of the 49-member Assembly of Real Estate Activities Group at Izmir Chamber of Commerce.
