Elysium Economic Forum (EEF)- Intro and VIP arrival
« on: July 14, 2019, 06:07:01 PM »
The Elysium Economic Forum (EEF)


In 2018 the Conglomerate and the Empire of Tamora signed a contract where the Conglomerate would be given a one hundred year lease over an area of approx. 200 sq miles of Tamoran land. That marked the beginning of the city of Elysium.  As the Conglomerate owned and operated city began to take shape, Tamoran businesses, mostly large ones, began incorporating there taking advantage of the contract that allowed them to become Conglomerate companies. The Elysium incorporated Tamoran businesses began to take advantage of the opportunity to expand aboard and gradually began to invest outside the borders of the Empire of Tamora. Some of these businesses (of which Polakis Energy was the largest) banded together with Tamoran religious NGOs and formed the Tamoran Economic Association for MidAranye (TEAM) with the stated mission of presenting to the world the real Midaranye and attempting to foster dialogue as well as improving the region by engaging business, political, academic, religious and other leaders of the MidAranye region and beyond in order to shape global, regional, and industry agendas.

Elysium Economic Forum (EEF) was the first such attempt by TEAM to get together some of the most prominent leaders (of all areas, from the political to business and religious) of the Midaranye region and beyond in order to dispel myths, build bridges, create business opportunities, consider new ideas relating to economics without ignoring geopolitics or religion.

TEAM sent invitations to all those that had embassies in Djerb (ooc: I mean all countries except for Slava Lavosk, Soviet Kaitaine and Rokkenjima; The Theocracy was of course invited, the Borlanders are not) inviting them to the event and informing them that the Imperial family, which in the Empire of Tamora meant the executive, legislative and judicial branches of government, would be attending the event as well as top three richest people in the Empire along with dozens of Tamoran businesses owners and representatives of the Tamoran wealth funds.


Welt Elysium Annex would be the location in Elysium where the forum takes place.

Laying out the red carpet

Laying out the red carpet

At the opening of the event in Elysium, the red carpet was laid for the most important of attendees: the political leaders, those that had huge wealth or those that where known as international businessmen (ooc: basically anyone that could be considered an A class VIP, for example: HoS, HoG, minister of economy/industry/finance/foreign relations, very rich individuals, famous business owners from their country, please note that there will be no interaction between characters as this is not the purpose of the event).



TINS, the largest media network in the Tamoran Empire, was all over the event but foreign press was also invited to take part and report on the event. TINS made sure to ask each of the VIPs that arrived what were their expectations and/or hopes for the event.

The Tamoran delegation arriving in Elysium - a full house

The Tamoran delegation arriving in Elysium - a full house

The Imperial couple

Abbas, the emperor of Tamora and his First Wife Alya were among the first VIPs to arrive at EEF. Tamoran protocol is very strict when it comes to nobles and generally the higher their rank of the noble the less likely they are to engage the press. However, Alya, whom in the last two years has gradually become popular among Tamorans thanks to backing of the Church of Mani, did give a short comment saying:  “EEF is the first such event in the MidAranye and we hope it will show the world a glimpse of the region and its diversity of ideas. “




The Crown prince Jamshid and his soon to be First Wife, Princess Thekla of Royal Seleucid

The Prince and Princess had recently arrived from Royal Seleucid where the two have spent some time together. This is also the first time Princess Thekla visited Tamora since their marriage announcement was made. To the delight of the Tamoran public, she came wearing the hijab though no announcements have been made that she has converted to Manism. While the Crown Prince did not take any questions, Princess Thekla said this to the press: “I am delighted to come to Tamora, my future home and EEF is a perfect opportunity to visit it before we finally decide it’s time I move here permanently. I hope this event shows the cooperation taking place between the nations of MidAranye and dispels some of the myths surrounding the region.”



Naser Safavid, Tamoran prince

Naser Safavid has been in the Kingdom of Clysperis for over a month leading an economic delegation which aims to increase economic cooperation between the two countries. While he smiled and waved discreetly to the press, he did not take any questions.
 



The Kadyrov couple, owners of Kadyrow Industries

Musaevna and Morad Kadyrov are the richest couple in the Empire worth approx. 90 billion dinars/usd. While Musaevna has often made public appearances, her husband has always been reluctant to appear in public. This time the couple appeared together in public which had reporters excited. Musaevna had this to say: “EEF is an international event where people from all over Mundus can come and engage. It’s a wonderful opportunity and I hope EEF will have a large international participation because cooperation is key to a stable and peaceful Mundus.”
Morad, on the other hand said: “I personally hope to hear some new and innovative ideas.”




Gholam Dabiri, the owner of the agricultural giant JDAC

Gholam Dabiri came alone to EEF and spoke to the press in the same blunt style that is his trademark:”I came for business, what else?”




Thanasis Polakis , owner of Polakis Energy ,and his First Wife Eliana

Thanasis Polakis and his First Wife Eliana were both jovial and approached the press. Thanisis joked and said :”I came for two things: to promote oil because it’s the future and leaders shouldn’t turn their back on it and second to promote Polakis Racing of Formula Mundus. I can’t wait for them to race in Desert Grand Prix of Royal Seleucid” as soon as he was done, Eliana added by pointing her finger at her husband “Well…I came for him”.


Spoiler: other highlights  • show


The convoy escorting the Imperial family was huge numbering dozens of cars.


The Polakis couple arrived by limousine as did many of the Tamoran businessmen.


Kadyrovs did not disappoint and arrived in a Ardian Bell V-280 Valor.(ooc: Thanks Dave for the help with this.)


We managed to get a glimpse of the interior of this luxury helicopter manufactured in the Allied States of Ardia. No further comment is necessary.

Aisha Adib-Farahani-Dirbaz-Safavid, Queen of Pramoria, was the first foreign VIP to arrive and got the press' eye from the first step on the red carpet. She was accompanied by her two husbands,  Mahdi Farahani, the oil magnate of Pramoria and Ramin Adib, the richest real estate businessman from the kindom.
"Both my husbands and I are delighted to be here, and to experience first hand Tamora’s now world-famous Elysium Economic Forum. I am here to continue the good economic relations we have.", Queen Aisha declared in front of the press. Her husbands did not take any questions.

Beketaten was originally scheduled to conduct business at home, however, she had relegated most of those tasks to the Vizier so that she could attend the EEF. She stopped for a moment to take questions from the press, setting her eyes first upon TINS.

"Any opportunity to visit Tamora is one I could hardly pass upon," Beketaten said with a warm familiarity with the TINS journalists on hand. "As you know the Kingdom of Clysperis is devoting its energies toward a vast economic retooling, thus an event such as the Elysium Economic Forum is a platform I am certainly interested in. Aside from investment opportunities across the Clysperi economy and our work force, I feel that Clysperi culture is a key advantage to doing business with the Kingdom, not to mention joint economic proposals which exist between the Kingdom and the Empire which I hope to see yield fruit. From those items we're already aware of to a proposal I've yet to unveil which will focus greatly in our economic endeavours, the Clysperi nation is primed and mobilized for expansion."

"Perhaps I may also learn while I am here," she continued. "I feel as though I've already learned much from His Royal Highness, Prince Naser, but there is always room to learn more. Thank you for your time and, as always, your continued service to journalistic excellence."
