IBBC Welcomes New Member
By John Lee.
The Iraq Britain Business Council (IBBC) has announced that Baghdad-based conference and business consultancy provider EMAAL has joined as a member.
According to a statement from the IBBC, the business is owned and run by Dr Ali Mahjob (pictured), who previously started the Iraq24 TV station, which focuses on business.
EMAAL will hold a tax reform conference in Baghdad in August, and a maritime conference focused on Al Faw in October.
Dr Mahjob said:
"We have known IBBC for a number of years and are delighted to be joining now our group is expanding. IBBC offers EMAAL a platform for business support in Iraq of all types, and IBBC's macro view of the economy and interaction with Government complements our practical granular level approach to private company development."
IBBC Managing Director Christophe Michels welcomed EMAAL, adding:
"IBBC has known Dr Ali and Iraq24 news channel, which has been very helpful to IBBC, and we look forward to collaborating with EMAAL in their new venture with our members to benefit the wider private sector in Iraq."
