Iraq Investment Forum postponed due to regional instability and airspace closures
Baghdad ( – The highly anticipated Iraq Investment Forum, which was scheduled to take place in Baghdad on June 14-15, has been postponed until further notice, the Iraqi Economic Council announced on Friday (June 13, 2025).
In a statement, the council explained the decision was made due to the ramifications and unstable conditions currently witnessed in the region. These developments have directly affected Iraq and neighboring countries, leading to the closure of airspace and airports in several nations, including Iraq.
The preparatory committee confirmed that final preparations for the forum had been fully completed, and official invitations had already been sent to guests from more than 35 Arab and foreign countries. The High Organizing Committee decided to postpone the event, with a new date to be determined and announced later.
The forum was set to showcase over 140 pre-approved investment opportunities to local and international businesses.
