The Commonwealth Business Forum (CBF) to be held from 12 to 14 November in Colombo within the ambit of CHOGM will definitely provide Sri Lankan businesses the prospect of harnessing new as well as expanding their existing business dealings to a greater level, stated a media release from the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce (CCC).
The statement further added that “for the 600 local businessmen accredited to participate in the CBF, it is the most opportune networking forum in their own home country, from which the participants should strive to reap maximum benefit. There are over 500 overseas senior businessmen who have registered to participate at CBF. This is definitely an excellent progressive step to being facilitated with exposure to a large number of international top businessmen to assist further economic development within individual organisations as well as at national level.”
In the current context of the global trade being liberally progressive, with positive features such as disappearing trade barriers and borders and higher exposure of organisations to both international competition and new markets, the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce urges all accredited local participants to positively participate and obtain the highest possible benefits from this opportunity.
All accredited local participants will be issued their accreditation badges this weekend – Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 November – which can be collected from the CHOGM Secretariat at the BMICH.
Each of the participants has also been provided with a web address along with an access password, through which they would have access to all the registered overseas delegates at CBF. This is to facilitate the local and overseas delegates to make their own business appointments prior to meeting at CBF.
Any delegate who has not received this access code and password may contact the Ceylon Chamber of Commerce (5588800 – ext. 316).
