Chinese delegation, BoI discuss new investment opportunities

ISLAMABAD: A three-member Chinese delegation from Tianjin Chuanhui Group visited the Board of Investment’s Project Management Unit (PMU) for CPEC on December 1, as a follow-up on the Prime Minister-led Pak-China B2B Investment Conference in Beijing, where an MoU was signed to enhance bilateral industrial cooperation. For its implementation phase, an orientation meeting was held with BOI and relevant ministries to advance the required formalities.

The BoI authorities briefed the delegation on SEZ opportunities, facilitation measures, and potential areas for collaboration, reaffirming their full support to ensure seamless facilitation and strong B2B linkages.

The delegation explored investment opportunities in Pakistan’s rapidly growing EV and industrial sectors, with particular interest in establishing a 2 & 3-wheeler EV assembly line in SEZs. The delegation expressed keen interest in EV manufacturing, charging infrastructure, use of EVs in agriculture, promoting green mobility, and helping reduce carbon emissions.

This engagement marks another step forward in the Industrial Cooperation Phase of CPEC, reinforcing momentum toward sustainable economic growth.

The BoI, under the leadership of Federal Minister Qaiser Ahmed Sheikh, continues to play a pivotal role in promoting foreign investment, expanding industrial cooperation, and advancing Pakistan’s economic integration with its global partners, especially China.
