The minister will hold meetings with delegations from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Qatar, including officials from international financial institutions, development organizations, and Middle Eastern investment banks. Special sessions on “Digital Pakistan” and “Investment in Pakistan,” organized by the Pathfinder Group, are also scheduled.
