In a recent interview with The European, Deodat Maharaj, Executive Director of Caribbean Export, emphasized the abundant investment opportunities available in the Caribbean. He pinpointed three key sectors as prime investment targets: technology-focused agriculture, transitioning towards a green economy, and innovation and digitalization. Maharaj highlighted how the Caribbean’s potential for agricultural innovation could significantly reduce the region’s food import costs, promoting self-sufficiency and economic growth.

Maharaj also underscored the Caribbean’s commitment to embracing the digital age, making it an appealing destination for technology and innovation businesses. Furthermore, he noted the region’s dedication to building a green economy to combat climate change, offering incentives to investors interested in sustainable initiatives.

“The Caribbean is a sea of stability in a world of uncertainty,” Maharaj stated, emphasizing the region’s political stability, good governance, and well-educated workforce as factors that make it an attractive investment destination. He highlighted the Caribbean’s impressive literacy rate of approximately 96% and its strong emphasis on education, providing a solid foundation for business growth and development.

The Caribbean Investment Forum 2023 will serve as a platform for attendees to gain insights into the Caribbean’s growth potential, investment incentives, and business-friendly environment. It will facilitate networking, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among local and international stakeholders.

With a goal to achieve consistent growth of 15% to 20% in foreign direct investment over the next several years, the Caribbean Export Development Agency is committed to establishing a robust foundation for economic resilience and development.
