DOHA: Qatar and Poland yesterday explored opportunities to continue cooperation in various areas and boost bilateral trade ties between the two countries.
Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski, who was on a two-day visit to Qatar, met with officials from Qatar Chamber yesterday along with representatives of the Polish business delegation.
The president also called Qatar’s businessmen to invest in his country, Europe’s sixth largest economy. He said Poland is experiencing an annual growth rate of three percent after emerging from the slowdown triggered by the global financial crisis.
The Polish delegation is exploring business partnerships in Qatar particularly in sports infrastructure for the 2022 World Cup.
Komorowski highlighted his country’s experience in organizing sports events such as the 2012 UEFA European Championship.
The President also said that Poland would start the process of importing natural gas from Qatar. This would balance its energy needs and open doors for more cooperation between the two countries, which have become stronger in the recent times. 
The chamber has assured assistance for the delegation to provide them with suitable partners and investment opportunities in both countries.
