| “Financial Planning & Analysis for Entrepreneurs” on March 6 |
| “Financial Planning & Analysis for Entrepreneurs” workshop was organised on March 6, 2023.
This workshop is highly recommended by the participants. One of the participants said that it was a very useful for business owners and top-managers, as it gives an insight of financial health of any organisation and helps prioritising the most important things, i.e., the cash is the king as Mr. Malcolm Wade said.
It is requested by our members, EuroChamber will be happy to organise such a workshop in partnership with Mongoljin Strategy Consulting.
We thank our member Mongoljin Strategy Consulting, trainers Mr. Malcolm Wade and Mr. Toby Philpott for delivering the training and Bodi International for hosting it. |

| Direct flights between Mongolia and Qatar are now possible |
| It is now possible to quickly transport passengers and cargo from Ulaanbaatar to the Middle East, North Africa, and Gulf countries, as Mongolia and Qatar signed an Air Transport Agreement for direct flights.
With the conclusion of this agreement, there will be a great opportunity for the development of tourism, business, trade and economic relations between the two countries. In particular, Mongolia will be able to exports its fresh organic meat and cedar nuts, while those living in Arab countries where the temperature ranges from 50°C to 60°C will have the opportunity to cool off summer.
Moreover, Mongolians will be served by Qatar Airways, one of the world’s leading airlines.
Qatar is the 40th country that Mongolia has signed an air communication to operate direct flights.
