Developers Invited To Belfast World Trade Centre Presentation

Property developers and estate agents keen to hear more about World Trade Centre Belfast are being invited to a lunchtime presentation on Friday 7 September.

Belfast City Council announced its ambitions to deliver a World Trade Centre were announced at an international conference held in Belfast in December 2006. Outlining the city’s vision to site a World Trade Centre in its midst, the Council expressed the hope that the city should become a symbol of identity, wealth and growth for the region.

The stated aim is to project Belfast on the global stage, to ensure that it achieves a well-deserved international status and that this in turn contributes to business and economic performance and the objective of Belfast as a positive place to live in, work in and visit.

The event will be hosted at Belfast City Hall and it will also provide information about the Investor Gateway Service currently being offered to potential investors.

Belfast City Council’s Economic Development unit is committed to showcasing Belfast as an ideal city for investment and hopes to work in partnership with property developers and estate agents to attract new business.

Anyone wishing to attend the event should contact Valerie Brown, Belfast City Council’s World Trade Centre Officer on: 02890 500518 or email: [email protected].
