He added that investment opportunities suggested by GOIC during this Congress "aim at reinforcing the industrial performance in Gulf countries based on their economic assets. In fact, a large share of raw materials used in different industries is available in Gulf countries. Upon execution, these investment opportunities will allow industrialists and investors to meet the increasing demand for industrial products in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the region." During parallel sessions, GOIC experts revealed specialized investment opportunities for Qatari and Gulf markets with a total value ranging between 300.5 million USD and 315.6 million USD.
