Mr. Simon Smits led a business delegation to Pakistan in 2014 and commended the strengthening of trade ties since then.

LUMS has signed an MoU for cooperation with the HAS University of Applied Sciences in Den Bosch. CBI, the Dutch Centre for the Promotion of Imports from Developing Countries, plays a significant role in helping Pakistan’s SMEs do business in the Netherlands and Europe, making use of the opportunities under the GSP+ scheme.” “There are many more such opportunities to be developed throughout 2015 – for instance in water management and agribusiness. I am excited at this prospect.”
