Iran economic diversification and export initiatives

Overview

Iranian officials are implementing strategies to diversify the national economy by reducing oil dependency and expanding non-oil exports.

In mid-October 2026, the Trade Promotion Organization of Iran announced initiatives to strengthen economic diplomacy and remove trade barriers. These programs focus on enhancing trade corridors, increasing synergy between public and private sectors, and promoting the export of knowledge-based goods and services to improve the country’s trade balance.

Parallel efforts are being directed toward the mining sector. Officials are prioritizing technological advancement, deep exploration, and the consolidation of geological data to modernize the industry. The goal is to shift from the sale of raw materials toward the production of finished products and the completion of the value chain, utilizing specialized exhibitions to attract investment and introduce knowledge-based companies.
