On this occasion of the Belgian Economic Mission to Kuwait beginning of March, the Arab-Belgian-Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce took advantage of its privileged relationship with Arab Embassies and, in this particular case, with the Embassy of Kuwait, to give the participants the chance to meet in person with the Ambassador of the State of Kuwait, HE Albudaiwi, to find out more about the various business opportunities offered by Kuwait prior to the Mission, and to receive a personalized answer to their specific questions/needs.
They thus had the pleasure to invite Belgian entrepreneurs to a private cocktail reception hosted by HE Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi, Ambassador of the State of Kuwait to the Kingdom of Belgium, at His Residence on 19 February 2019.
