Around
264 projects worth a possible 8.7 billion dollars
make up Cuba’s portfolio of foreign investment
opportunities, currently being presented at the
Havana International Trade Fair (FIHAV 2014).
Although
the portfolio contains projects from across the
county, including the special municipality of the
Isle of Youth, the majority are based in provinces
such as Artemisa, Havana, Cienfuegos and Holguín,
among others.
Around 25
projects are included in the Mariel Special
Development Zone, in sectors such as biotechnology,
medicines, food and agriculture, industry and
renewable energy.
According to Rodrigo Malmierca Díaz, minister of
Foreign Trade and Investment, the portfolio will be
up-dated every year with greater depth and focus in
order to establish a chain of production in the
country.
