PREPARATIONS for the Tanga Business Forum slated for Thursday this week are complete, according to organizers.
The one-day workshop, organised by
Tanzania Standard Newspapers (TSN) and the regional administration, is
expected to bring together regional stakeholders at Regal Naivera
Complex here, to brainstorm on challenges and opportunities available in
the region.
Mr Patrice Simbachawene, one of
organisers from TSN, said they were currently putting final touches on
the preparations, hinting that the forum was expected to focus on issues
relating to industries in the region and the envisaged Hoima-Tanga oil
pipeline.
“Through this workshop, we want
stakeholders to come up with ideas of how to reclaim the lost glory of
the region as an industrial hub,” he explained during an interview with
the ‘Daily News’.
Among other key players expected to
attend are Tanzania Telecommunications Company Limited (TTCL), Tanzania
Revenue Authority (TRA), National Housing Corporation (NHC), investors
in the hospitality sector, industries and small scale business people as
well as nongovernmental organisations.
Mr Simbachawene said the participants
will get opportunities to hear presentations from each district council
that will highlight on opportunities in their respective areas for
attracting investors.
Regional Commissioner (RC) Martin
Shigela (pictured) vowed that he would ensure every district council
participated in the forum.
