"We created these websites as an effective medium to reach a large audience. This will be the first point of entry for anyone requiring any information on Bahrain," said EDB chief executive Shaikh Mohammed bin Isa Al Khalifa.
Bahrain.com is a comprehensive website with useful information, including general facts on Bahrain, the business environment and the various leisure activities and events.
It will be informative to both investors, visitors, and residents alike. The website has already won the Best Economic Website Award at a recent ceremony held by the eGovernment Authority in conjunction with the Bahrain Society for Engineers and Bahrain Society for Information Technology at the Bahrain International eGovernment Forum.
Bahrainfs.com provides specific information on the financial services environment in the kingdom.
Some of it is sector specific on issues such as insurance, or Islamic finance or the stock market.
Website visitors will find all the most recent information on various financial and banking activities and events that are taking place in Bahrain.
Business Friendly Bahrain is an advertising campaign that can be seen in several international media outlets and even on London taxis highlighting Bahrain as an attractive business environment for direct investment.
This will create more value added jobs that will improve middle income Bahraini families and enhance the national economy.
