Jordan participates in 29th Arab-German Economic Forum in Berlin

Amman, June 20 (Petra) – A delegation from Jordan and Amman Chambers
of Commerce took part in the 29th Arab-German Business Forum, held in
Berlin, Germany, under the theme: “Beyond Transformation:
Intelligence, Innovation, and Impact.”

According to a joint statement issued by the two chambers on
Saturday, Nabil Khatib, a member of the Jordan Chamber of Commerce’s
board of directors and First Vice Chairman of Amman Chamber of
Commerce, said the participation aims to broaden horizons of
economic, trade, and investment cooperation between Jordan and
Germany.

Khatib added that the presence also seeks to enhance communication
with the German business community and explore partnership and
investment opportunities in priority sectors.

Khatib, who headed the delegation, noted the forum constitutes an
“important” platform for launching economic dialogue, exchanging
expertise, and building partnerships.

He said this significance is particularly due to the event’s focus on
artificial intelligence, innovation, digital transformation,
sustainability, energy, infrastructure, logistics, and modern
technology, which are sectors that receive increasing attention
within the Kingdom’s Economic Modernization Vision.

He added that the Jordanian delegation held a series of meetings with
heads and representatives of participating Arab delegations,
companies, and German and Arab economic institutions.

During these discussions, he noted the delegation reviewed the
Kingdom’s available investment opportunities, priviliges offered by
the Investment Environment Law, and ways to explore possibilities of
establishing partnerships and joint projects that serve mutual
economic interests.

During 2025, Khatib announced the volume of Jordan-Germany trade
exchange continued to grow, as Jordanian exports to the German market
increased by 92.4%, reaching about JD59 million, compared to JD718
million in imports.

He noted Jordan has “promising” opportunities to boost its exports to
the German market, mainly in the clothing, pharmaceutical, food
industries and modern technologies sectors.

Additionally, he called for intensifying communication between the
two countries’ private sector institutions to take advantage of
available opportunities and develop economic and investment
cooperation during the next stage.
