The visiting delegation included CEOs and senior executives from 20 Kazakh companies operating across sectors including real estate development, construction, agriculture, information technology, and education. The meeting was also attended by a group of UAE-based companies from diverse sectors to enhance bilateral trade and joint investments. A series of B2B meetings were held between members of the visiting delegation and local companies and investors.
