The meeting, chaired by Dr Ahmed bin Mohammed al-Sayed from Qatar and Jam Kamal Khan from Pakistan, took place during the 9th World Investment Forum. The primary objectives of the discussion were to explore avenues for increasing trade exchanges, mutual investments, and overcoming challenges to bilateral trade. Additionally, the sides delved into recent updates on the free trade agreement negotiations between the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and Pakistan, as well as potential areas of collaboration in sectors such as food security, industry, technology, and logistics, all aimed at fostering deeper economic partnerships between the two nations.",
