TEHRAN – Iran Chamber of Commerce, Industries, Mines and Agriculture (ICCIMA) held the 14th conference of the country’s economic enterprises dubbed “Economic enterprises, leaders of development” on Saturday to explore challenges and opportunities facing the mentioned entities.

Chaired by the ICCIMA Head Samad Hassanzadeh, the conference was attended by representatives of several economic enterprises from various provinces.

As the ICCIMA portal reported, the event has received more attention due to the government's approach in using the private sector’s capacities, and a part of it is dedicated to the introduction of the country’s top enterprises.

Speaking at the conference, Hassanzadeh emphasized that the private sector is seeking to clarify the position of enterprises in the country’s economy, adding: “Economic enterprises guide and direct the individual efforts of businesses and are a bridge for communication between people and the government.”

Underlining the role of enterprises in expressing concerns and economic problems and finding operational solutions to face them, Hassanzadeh said: "In recent years, we have seen that after the implementation of any policy, challenges emerge, the cause of which is the lack of consensus with enterprises; While the principle of consulting organizations and economic enterprises is emphasized in the law.”

Pointing out that the multiplicity of organizations granting licenses for establishing enterprises and the existence of parallel economic entities are among the problems in this field, he said: “Using the capacity of economic enterprises is one example of specialization that leads to productivity growth. Based on this, we hope that the 14th government will take advantage of their capacity in the policy-making process so that the private sector can fulfill its great mission in the path of economic development.”
