EU External Investment Plan - Regional Outreach Event
Event: EU External Investment Plan – Regional Outreach Event
Date: 8 November 2017 (9h-17h)
Location: Cairo, Egypt
The European Union’s External Investment Plan (EIP) responds to ambitious political objectives and aims at mobilising a large volume of investments, especially from the private sector, to fulfil economic and social development in EU partner countries. To prepare the ground for the launch of the EIP, DG NEAR is working to ensure the widest visibility to the Plan, its approach and its instruments, by engaging with a reinforced dialogue with our partners and with the business communities across the Neighbourhood Regions. The one day regional event will consist of expert discussions bringing together the national authorities, private sector companies partner International Financial Institutes (IFIs) to discuss the investment opportunities in the region. The event will provide an opportunity to network with companies from across the region as well as partner IFIs who will be proposing pipelines of projects under the new investment windows.
