TEHRAN (Iran News) Seyed Aghazadeh detailed that the webinar, organized by the Karaj Chamber, included participation from provincial economic managers and investment authorities from the Alborz Governor’s Office. Coordinated with Iran’s Consulate General in Guangzhou, the event drew a robust turnout from Chinese firms. “This initiative underscores our commitment to promoting Alborz as a hub for investment,” he said, noting that over 100 projects spanning infrastructure, industry, technology, agriculture, and tourism were presented. A key highlight was an English-language film showcasing Alborz’s economic strengths, offering Chinese investors a comprehensive view of the region’s potential.

The deputy emphasized the critical role of foreign investment in driving economic growth, advancing technology, boosting employment, and strengthening national production. “In an era where many countries approach economic cooperation with Iran cautiously due to external pressures, the enthusiastic participation of Chinese investors signals their keen interest in our opportunities,” he remarked. The webinar provided a platform for direct engagement, enabling investors to explore actionable prospects in real time.

Seyed Aghazadeh highlighted the interconnectedness of trade and investment, stating, “Many successful investments in Iran have stemmed from prior commercial ties. Companies familiar with our market often expand into investment and business development after assessing the opportunities.” He added that alongside promoting investment, the Karaj Chamber is focused on deepening Alborz’s trade relations with other nations, laying the groundwork for broader economic partnerships.

Stressing the importance of economic diplomacy, Seyed Aghazadeh revealed plans to replicate such webinars with other countries. “We aim to position Alborz as an attractive investment destination regionally and globally. Beyond China, we’re planning similar events with Asian and European nations to further pave the way for foreign capital,” he said. These efforts, he noted, not only attract investors but also elevate Alborz and Iran’s profile as an industrial and economic powerhouse, enhancing the province’s international brand.

Despite the progress, Seyed Aghazadeh pointed to a challenge: many private-sector investment proposals lack proper frameworks. “There’s a pressing need to educate economic stakeholders about foreign investment—its benefits, and how to pitch projects effectively to global investors,” he explained. Leveraging the Karaj Chamber’s extensive experience in this arena, he expressed readiness to foster a culture of investment readiness. “We’re prepared to offer training and consultation programs for private-sector players in Alborz, incorporating discussions and knowledge-sharing. Plans for such initiatives are already in motion for 1404 [2025-2026].”

Seyed Aghazadeh expressed optimism about the webinar’s economic impact. “Events like these don’t just draw foreign funds—they spotlight Alborz’s capabilities and build its reputation worldwide,” he said. With over 40 Chinese firms engaging directly with Alborz’s offerings, the event sets a promising precedent for future collaborations, potentially unlocking new avenues for growth in one of Iran’s key provinces.
