PRESS RELEASE ON EASE OF DOING BUSINESS IN NAMIBIA

Re: ENHANCING NAMIBIA’S COMPETITIVENESS THROUGH EASE OF DOING BUSINESS
One of the key objectives of the Forum of German-Speaking Namibians, which was formed in April 2021, is to promote Namibia as an attractive business location and to - should the occasion arise – act as mediator between local and foreign enterprises and institutions.
We believe that the public and private sector need to have a public dialogue on how we can improve the ease of doing business in Namibia which is now referred to as the BUSINESS READY (B-Ready) and what effects this may have on Namibia’s Competitiveness, especially in the light of current and future increases in volumes of investments. Other issues identified to be addressed are:
1. What must be done to unlock the full potential of local and international trade?
2. How can the private sector and local businesses lead Namibia’s development path?
Join us for an open, frank and solution-driven discussion on these issues on Saturday, 20 September 2025 from 08.30 to 15.00 at the Gemeindezentrum Foundation, corner of Simeon Shixungileni and Dr W Külz Streets (near Game and former Air Namibia).
The aim is to find solutions going forward and we are expecting questions which will be addressed directly to public institutions like Ministry of Home Affairs, to Immigration, NAMRA, BIPA and Master of the High Court just to mention a few in a panel discussion as from 11.00 to 12.30 as per the detailed programme which is attached hereto. The Namibia Investment Promotion Development Board (NIPDB) as well as local experts Messrs Rowland Brown and Robin Sherbourne have already confirmed their participation.
Please rest assured that the appropriate tonality in terms of fairness and mutual respect will be maintained throughout the day. We are convinced that the public and private sectors can move closer together in the interest of developing Namibia jointly forward towards our Vision 2030/NDP6.
Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned should you have any queries.
Yours faithfully

Harald Hecht – Chairperson` Benita Herma – Vice Chairperson
