NASTEX 2026 witnessed the signing of a cooperation agreement between the Syrian-Chinese Business Council and the Damascus and Rural Damascus Chamber of Industry, in a step aimed at strengthening economic and industrial communication and expanding cooperation between Syrian business leaders and manufacturers and their Chinese counterparts.
The agreement was signed by Fadi Al-Ahmad, Chairman of the Syrian-Chinese Business Council and founder of NASTEX, and Engineer Mohammad Ayman Al-Mawlawi, Chairman of the Damascus and Rural Damascus Chamber of Industry.
The signing ceremony was attended by representatives of economic and industrial institutions participating in the exhibition.
The agreement was signed at the heart of NASTEX, reflecting the exhibition’s role as a platform that brings together manufacturers, investors and representatives of economic institutions while providing space for direct meetings, partnership discussions and cooperation serving Syria’s productive sectors.
Cooperation to Support Syrian-Chinese Industrial Relations
The agreement seeks to strengthen coordination between the Syrian-Chinese Business Council and the Damascus and Rural Damascus Chamber of Industry.
It also aims to improve communication between companies and industrial institutions and raise awareness of the opportunities available to businesspeople, manufacturers and investors.
The agreement represents a step towards developing industrial and commercial relations, encouraging the exchange of expertise and benefiting from China’s technical and manufacturing capabilities to meet the needs of Syrian industrial facilities and support the development of their production capacity.
The Syrian-Chinese Business Council plays a role in creating communication channels between the business communities of both countries, while the Damascus and Rural Damascus Chamber of Industry represents a broad range of manufacturers and productive enterprises.
This gives the agreement particular importance in connecting the requirements of Syria’s industrial sector with opportunities for cooperation available through Chinese companies and institutions.
NASTEX as a Platform for Signing Partnerships
NASTEX’s hosting of the signing ceremony reflects the role the exhibition seeks to establish, not only as a venue for presenting products, machinery and technologies, but also as a practical platform for meetings, agreements and the transformation of institutional dialogue into cooperation that can be further developed.
The exhibition brings manufacturers, investors, technology providers and economic institutions together under one roof.
This enables participants to discuss industrial requirements and build partnerships that support production and open broader opportunities for regional and international cooperation.
The agreement is expected to provide a framework for strengthening joint action between the Syrian-Chinese Business Council and the Damascus and Rural Damascus Chamber of Industry.
It will also support initiatives aimed at developing Syrian industry and expanding communication between Syrian and Chinese companies during the coming period.
