This is a forum jointly organised by FCCISL and SAARC CCI and will focus on economic prospects and challenges and is expected to draw eminent professionals, scholars and leading entrepreneurs from whole of South Asia.

FCCISL and SAARC CCI President Ruwan Edirisinghe said: “We are holding this important event at a time when most SAARC countries are engrossed in political and economic turmoil.

Therefore, this is a timely move to identify and discuss the opportunities to promote regional economic cooperation. FCCISL and SAARC CCI have invited the leaders of the private sector, representatives of regional think tanks, government representatives dealing with economic, trade and foreign policies of SAARC countries, and representatives of international institutions, to deliberate and brainstorm the core components of integration for enhanced regional economic integration.

This forum will be followed by the ceremony organised by FCCISL on the changeover of the presidency of SAARC Chamber Women Entrepreneur Council (SCWEC) in Islamabad, Pakistan from Sri Lanka to Afghanistan.
