Charge d’Affaires at the US Embassy in Qatar Natalie Baker has said that the eighth edition of the Doha International Maritime Exhibition (DIMDEX) is witnessing the largest-ever participation of US companies this year.

Inaugurating the US Pavilion at DIMDEX on Monday at the Qatar National Convention Center (QNCC), Baker said that the growing participation of US companies underscores the robust bilateral partnership between the United States and Qatar.

She said that the expansion of relations encompasses trade, investment, and the defence sectors, with a gradual approach to engaging more American companies in participation and further growth.
