The contingent from the Kingdom of Bahrain consists of over 12 leading corporate captains and entrepreneurs of industry for the said Conclave. They would be having B2B meetings and discussions with counterpart companies and business personalities in Sri Lanka in order to expand the commercial and economic interests, regionally and globally. 

Shaikh Salman bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, Principal Adviser to the Prime Minister, was invited by the Government of Sri Lanka as a Guest of the Government and would be attending the Conclave. Less than two months ago, he had a meeting on the margins of the World Economic Forum in Davos with the Prime Minister and delegation of Sri Lanka. During this visit, he is scheduled to meet a number political dignitaries and senior most officials as well as corporate leaders of Sri Lanka during his brief visit to Sri Lanka. 

Ambassador of Sri Lanka to the Kingdom of Bahrain, Dr. A Saj U. Mendis stated that it is strongly envisaged that this first-ever visit to Sri Lanka would open up a new chapter and new page in Sri Lanka-Bahrain commercial and economic relations, thus deepening and elevating the relations, particularly in the sphere of business and investments.
