Al Salam Bank Bahrain sponsors EnviroArabia 2007

The conference will be held from 23-25 April 2007 at the Gulf International Conference Centre, and this year carries the theme "Environment Sustainability and Future Challenges"

Al Salam Bank-Bahrain has sponsored the conference as part of its programme of contributing and adding value to the social and economic well-being of the local communities.

The EnviroArabia conference is a biennial gathering of professionals, producers and experts dealing with environmental issues and research to discuss progress made in industries across the world through expert opinion in this specialized subject and will be looking to make progress towards protecting the environment for a sustainable and secure future in the region.

Mr. Yousif Taqi, Chief Executive Officer of Al Salam Bank said, "In addition to being able to contribute to the community through sponsoring EnviroArabia 2007, the event is also particularly relevant to some of the Bank's areas of investment - in particular, alternative sources of energy and petrochemicals. The exposure we gain through sponsoring and participating in events is of great value to Al Salam Bahrain, allowing us to enrich the bank's knowledge and exposure to opportunities within this industry."

As the Bank enters its second year, it is already addressing environmental issues relevant to the industries in which its investments are focused. This forms a part of Al Salam Bank-Bahrain's strategy to improve the future of the next generation.
