ICCI President Khalid Iqbal Malik and Greek-Pakistan Entrepreneurship Cooperation Initiative President Maria-Rubina G Markopoulou signed the agreement on behalf of their respective organisations.
Speaking on the occasion, Malik said bilateral trade between Pakistan and Greece did not reflect the actual potential of both countries. However, it could be improved by promoting connectivity between private sectors of both the countries and encouraging frequent exchange of trade delegations.
The ICCI president was of the view that both countries had the potential to cooperate with each other in solar energy, tourism, agriculture and infrastructure development for achieving mutually beneficial results. “Pakistan and Greece need to improve their commercial and economic relations by taking advantage of new business opportunities,” Markopoulou suggested.
