5th rebuilding Iraq starts this Thursday
The January 2005 elections in Iraq marked a turning point in the country’s transition to a democratic, free-market system. On December 1-2, 2005, 11 months after Iraq’s first democratic elections and just over a year after the transfer of sovereignty from the Coalition Provisional Authority to the people of Iraq, New Fields Exhibitions will hold the 5th Rebuilding Iraq Conference in Washington DC.
The 5th Rebuilding Iraq Conference builds on New Fields’ successful track record of providing the premier events on the Iraqi reconstruction process. Since 1994, more than 150,000 corporate and government leaders from around the world have participated in New Fields events. Speakers at previous conferences in New Fields’ Rebuilding Iraq series included officials from:
* Coalition Provisional Authority
* U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
* U.S. Department of Commerce’s Iraq Reconstruction Task Force
* U.S. Export-Import Bank
* U.S. Small Business Administration
One of the key ways for successful entry into Iraq is for companies to work with Iraqi partners. New Fields Iraq conferences provide unique opportunities for American companies to meet and network with their counterparts from Iraq as well as top officials from the Iraqi Governing Council. Iraqi speakers at our conferences have included:
* Rend al Rahim, Iraqi Governing Council representative to the United States
* Nijyar Shemdin, Kurdistan Regional Government representative to the United States
* Nasreen Barwari, Iraqi Minister of Public Works
* Sami al Majoun, Iraqi Minister of Labor
* Raad al Haris, Senior Advisor to the Iraqi Ministry of Electricity
* Dozens of Iraqi entrepreneurs and representatives of companies from Iraq
Our events have also benefited from the participation of several key prime contractors. Speakers and exhibitors from prime contractors at recent New Fields events included officials from:
* Halliburton KBR
* Washington Group International
