He also highlighted that the chamber values entrepreneurs as a vital part of the private sector, emphasising its commitment to encouraging them to establish businesses and increase the number of SMEs in the country.

Al-Mansouri underscored the chamber’s readiness to co-operate with the AYBC by organising joint meetings between Qatari and Saudi entrepreneurs to exchange views and expertise and discuss opportunities to establish joint ventures.

For his part, al-Afaliq said the delegation’s visit aims to learn about Qatar’s investment climate and explore opportunities available for Saudi entrepreneurs to form partnerships with their Qatari counterparts.
