Azad Mustafa Hussain, Vice-Chairman of Mass Global Investment Company chalks out the growth of the group that is responsible for 22 hour electricity supply in Iraqi Kurdistan and is the largest power-industrial conglomerate in Iraqi Kurdistan.

Rebaz Zedbagi, partner at Senk Group, talks about road construction in Iraqi Kurdistan.
Newroz group is a regional telecom group. When Newroz Telecom began their operation in 2005 the internet penetration rate was almost zero. Newroz Telecom was the first company to interconnect Iraq around the world and replace the old connections. Following the recent negative experience in Iraq, Newroz Telecom is now focusing on Kurdistan only. The company plans to deploy 4G (LTE) all over the Kurdistan region of Iraq.
Imagine it is 2005 and the Internet penetration rate of Kurdistan (KRG) is near to zero, the only telecom was the government monopoly entity with aging exchanges and no fiber optics.
Kurdistan is a baby tiger growing in the mountains of the Middle East and it is the second fastest growing region in the world according to the World Bank. Mr. Zedbagi explicitly comments on what more should be done to improve the overall business climate in the Kurdistan Region. He also decribes the process of road construction within the Region and what makes Senk Group an ideal investment partner in Kurdistan.
