ISLAMABAD: The Commonwealth Asia Alliance of Young Entrepreneurs (CAAYE) is hosting an Indo-Pak Young Entrepreneurs Summit on Tuesday.
The event is taking place in association with the Aman Ki Asha campaign and the Young Entrepreneurs Forum of the Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry. It is also in partnership with the organisation Young Indians.
The event will be attended by about 30 young entrepreneurs from India. A large number of local entrepreneurs, dignitaries, diplomats, members of academia,
policymakers and university students are expected to participate in the event.
Shaban Khalid, president of the Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry and chairman of the Young Entrepreneurs Forum said that India and Pakistan have massive potential for bilateral trade which can be raised from the current $2.5 billion to $10 billion per annum by taking measures to facilitate the businessmen of the two countries.
With a population base of approximately 1.5 billion people, India and Pakistan also possess the potential of a strong economic bloc.
However, to realise this untapped economic potential, both sides need to reshape their bilateral ties by making efforts for an end to mutual mistrust.
