The State of Kuwait is rolling out investment partnerships and strategic investment opportunities valued at more than $ 100 billion in key economic and social sectors for investors that include information & communications technology, oil & gas, renewable energy, electricity & water, urban developments & housing, healthcare, education, transport, tourism, and the North zone development.

The showcase of opportunities that bring long-term added-value and returns on investments is being highlighted at the Kuwait Investment Forum 2018 (KIF 2018) to be held on March 20 and 21 in Kuwait City, where several new deals are also set to be revealed.

The event builds on the positive momentum gained globally following the country’s commitment to the Kuwait 2035 roadmap that aims to transform the nation into a world-class financial and commercial centre. Kuwait is a country that enjoys a secure, open and dynamic market that welcomes inward direct investments to forge partnerships that would complement its outward investments in several countries around the world led by its renowned Sovereign Wealth Fund, and with its leading global presence in the oil and gas sector through the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) and its K-companies as well as its buoyant private sector.

Kuwait has significant economic and commercial relations with India, while many leading Indian companies have their established presence in the country. There are significant opportunities for Indian companies to collaborate on the national development plan. The door is wide open for even more stronger Indian private sector partnerships will be showcased at KIF 2018 with a focus on some of the most attractive investment opportunities.
