Businessman sees major opportunity in Iraq - 7/8/2005

Birmingham area businessman Dave Nash is aware of Iraq’s problems, but he sees much progress and potential.
That’s why Nash, who heads an economic planning and financial advisory firm, plans a trip to Iraq later this month.
“I think it’s very important to Iraq to begin to have the private sector get going, to have the infrastructure functional, and I’m just going over to see what I can do to help,” said the 62-year-old Shelby County resident.
Nash has been to Iraq before. Working for the U.S. Defense Department, he oversaw billions of dollars in construction and rebuilding projects in Iraq from July 2003 until last September.
After completing that assignment, the retired Navy admiral started working as an executive with BE&K and formed a limited liability corporation, Dave Nash and Associates, with some of the colleagues with whom he worked in Iraq. Nash will be heading to Iraq on behalf of the corporation, and the timing of the trip could be postponed for a month if he is not able to arrange all the meetings he hopes to have with government and business officials.

Dave Nash is a very well known and highly respected businessman with all the
right connections!! If he says there is good profit potential in Iraq you can take that to the bank as the saying goes. I notice the article mentions he considers the financial sector to be one of the areas with good potential among other things. This is another sign we are on the right track with our investment!! :happy64:

Thats true. Just let the insurgency subside then you'll see an unprecedented influx of businessmen, they are ready, with plans, finances and connections. They are just waiting for the right moment, I know many personally. If there is a deal with insurgents and stability is in the offing, be ready for a flood of economic activities in Iraq. :wave:

....no wonder he is highly respected and very well known...

Sounds to me as though, he is going where all the other well known, big time, businessmen are just waiting .......for someone like him to take the first jump..

I hope he brings a journalist with him....what a story he could have written..
More publicity in that area would make others take more action....unless some of the big timers are waiting until an official peg/float/basket of the dinar...............then in they will all go. Some people need more legitimacy before they throw in millions.

thanks for confirming Dave Nash; I wasnt sure who he was. It does appear he and a few other professionals are making their moves or waiting for a little more stability/security. Should be interesting when things start really coming together in the business world there...
