FRESNO, Calif. (KMJ/KFSN) — Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer and his wife are on a trip overseas in the Middle East, visiting with leaders in Qatar.
In a series of posts on X, he said he’s with a group of mayors from across the US.
They are meeting with investors and promoting Fresno as a “premium investment opportunity.”
Mayor Dyer went on to say Qatar is focused on building sub-national relationships in the areas of healthcare, technology, real estate and infrastructure.
The mayor says the country has already invested over $70 billion in the US and he wants to “ensure they see Fresno as an excellent opportunity.”
The trip is funded by the Qatar Embassy.
