The Director of the Foreign Investment Promotion Agency of BiH (FIPA) Gordan Milinić was selected as the member of the Steering Committee of the World Organization of Foreign Investment Agencies WAIPA at the 22nd World Investment Conference WIC17, held in Dubai on 27-28 November 2017.
The entry of FIPA in the Steering Committee of
WAIPA is significant for the reason that Bosnia and Herzegovina and its
potentials will be much more promoted within the events organized by WAIPA than
it wasn’t the case so far.
Within the competition for entry into this
body, FIPA managed to win a financially more powerful competitor such as the
Tatarstan Foreign Investment Agency, which is the result of work and efforts of
the Agency's representatives.
The conference brought together more than a
hundred foreign investment leaders and experts, representatives of leading
foreign investment agencies of the world, international institutions, financial
institutions, private sector representatives, leading economists, researchers,
political representatives and academic community representatives to discuss
recent trends in the foreign investment sphere, the foreign investments policy,
and what brings the latest practice of promoting foreign investments in 2017.
Participants of the conference discussed on what
is the future of foreign investment, exchanged the best world practices in
attracting foreign investments, and their investments promotion skills.
