In association with national authorities, chambers of commerce and bar associations, the HCLA Network has been hosting informative and effective events focusing on the “Law & Business” prospects hidden within a few select Free Economic Zones around the world. Within the framework of this program, HCLA, the Alat Free Economic Zone Authority, and the Azerbaijani Embassy in The Hague, are hosting a number of exclusive “Law & Business” events in the Netherlands throughout the coming months.
The Alat Free Economic Zone (AFEZ) is a special zone situated in the Caspian Region, Azerbaijan. Privy to a unique legal framework and jurisdiction, AFEZ brings together advantageous characteristics inherent in a free economic zone, and intermarries it with its geographical location, dubbed by legal and business analysts as the Eurasian Golden Bridge.
The events will host a limited number of major entrepreneurs, with presentations briefly given by the Chairman of the Board of AFEZA and H.E. the Ambassador of Azerbaijan to The Hague, as well as Q&A time on topics such as:
- How does the special jurisdiction in AFEZ operate to the advantage of expanding businesses?
- How does the special jurisdiction in AFEZ operate within the national legal framework? (or)
- What benefits, whether legal, business, or tax exist for companies’ intent on branching into the region and its markets?
Interested businesses and entrepreneurs may contact event@hclanl.com with any questions about the events and AFEZ, its special jurisdiction, tax privileges, business establishment requirements and joining the upcoming Business Events alongside the AFEZ authorities.
