Last week, the group of prominent leaders from Europe called on Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development Zulfi Bukhari and Ali Jahangir Siddiqui, ambassador-at-large for investment were also present during the meeting which took place at the Prime Minister House.
Her Highness Princess Beatrice leads a ‘high-level delegation’ on an adventurous heli-skiing trip in Pakistan. The royal was hosted by the President of Pakistan as part of the working trip. Part of her role as Vice President of Partnerships and Strategy for AI firm Afiniti.
It comes after reports that Princess Beatrice would take on a more prominent role in the royal family after Prince Harry, 35, and Meghan Markle’s, 38, departure.
The week-long trip sees Princess Beatrice join 60 other keen skiers in Pakistan’s Kaghan Valley for the adventure.
The expedition, which was organized as a collaboration between Afiniti and the media wing of Pakistan’s armed forces, promises online to bring together ‘tech professionals, entrepreneurs and multinational CEOs’ from around the world for the ‘unique expedition’.
Heli-skiing is a form of adventurous downhill skiing which sees skiers head off-trail to parts of a mountain reached by helicopter, instead of a ski lift.
Princess Beatrice is an experienced skier and often spends time at her parents’ chalet in Verbier over the winter season.
Her visit to Pakistan comes four months after Prince William, 37, and Kate Middleton, 38, visited the country for a five-day visit to the country.
Last month, Robert Lacey, who is the historical consultant for The Crown, said Princess Beatrice alongside her sister Princess Eugenie, 29, would ‘be brought forward’ because it’s ‘what the royal family needs’ after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex decided to step back from royal life.
