U.S. and Iraq work together to promote business

Talks between the prime minister of Iraq and the U.S.-based Alliance for International Meetings and Commerce are underway weeks after the United States pulled its remaining troops out of the country. The goal is to lead business development conferences to promote business in Iraq. “We applaud the Iraqi government for reaching out through its U.S. connections to explore ways to advance their business community. The business development conferences we discussed are good initial steps to making this happen,” said Jack Sammis, president and chief executive officer of AIMC.
