Doing Business in Algeria Conference with Networking Dinner (October 29) and CEO Business to Business Meetings (October 30) in Washington, DC

The Doing Business in Algeria Roadshow’s mission will be threefold:

  • to showcase Algerian products and services to US buyers and to give US sellers access to Algerian executives seeking to purchase US goods and services;
  • to announce firsthand opportunities for concrete information for US executives on how to succeed in business in Algeria; and
  • to foster frank exchanges between leading economic players in US-Algeria trade with the goal of expanding partnership and trade

US executives should save-the-date and plan to attend at least one of the featured conferences during the Doing Business in Algeria Roadshow featuring His Excellency Abdeslam Bouchouareb, the Minister of Investment, Industry and Mines of Algeria and His Excellency Ambassador Abdallah Baali, the Algerian Ambassador to the United States, and the Official Algerian Delegation.

These conferences will both follow the same basic schedule: a full day conference (featuring success stories, insight from Algerian business leaders and government officials, new opportunities and tips for succeeding in US-Algeria trade) with an evening networking dinner and the next day a full day of business to business meetings. These conferences will have US Department of Commerce and the Algerian Committee for Doing Business trade experts available to support discussions as well as translators.
