In addition, the 100 most promising companies selected by the Future100 initiative participate in Investopia 2024 to glean insights and explore partnerships with investors.
Investopia aims to create an attractive regional and international economic climate, opening up a broad investment gateway for countries, investors, global economic leaders, major companies and financial, industrial and technological institutions to capitalise on diverse global investment opportunities.
The conference hosts over 90 speakers representing major global companies and features more than 40 dialogues and roundtables around key economic and investment challenges and opportunities. These sessions cover various themes, including risk capital deals strategies, the growth potential for a low-carbon economy, the new generation of investment, and the latest technologies used in aviation and logistics.
The third edition of Investopia builds on the success of the previous two editions, which attracted more than 3,500 participants from 60 different countries. These included over 500 executives, 180 co-founders of major international institutions and companies, and investment funds that manage more than $500 billion in assets.
“Year after year, Investopia continues to consolidate the vision and directives of our wise leadership in transitioning towards an economic model based on knowledge, technology and innovation. It seeks to actively contribute to outlining a new roadmap for investment in the sectors of the new economy, recognising their critical role in fostering the global economy’s sustainable growth,” Abdullah bin Touq Al Marri, Minister of Economy and Chairman of Investopia, earlier said.
