In his keynote address on Wednesday, PM Imran highlighted Pakistan's advantages and invited the world to invest in the country. He spoke about the young population of the country and its untapped potential to increase trade and provide services across the globe.
"I think we have, Pakistan has, made strides very quickly," he added.
The premier also explained that his vision for Pakistan stemmed from the country's strategic location — "probably one of the most fortunate positions in the world".
"One the one side is China, one of the fastest growing markets and of course closely allied to Pakistan. Then, we have energy reserves in Central Asia and, the moment this peace in Afghanistan [happens], we then have access to all the markets in Central Asia.
"Then we have Iran and hopefully if things settle down, the more we trade with Iran, both countries will benefit," he said.
