The 12th edition of the Annual Investment Meeting (AIM) will be held in Abu Dhabi for the first time from the 8th to the 10th of May, 2023.
Over 600 influential speakers are expected to participate in dialogue sessions this year under the theme “The Investment Paradigm Shift: Future Investment Opportunities to Foster Sustainable Economic Growth, Diversity and Prosperity.” The forum will serve in strengthening UAE’s economic position and promote foreign investments in the country.
AIM will focus on two main tracks this year: Investment and Innovation Technology. The agenda is divided into several strong programs including the Entrepreneurs Investment Summit organized by the Arab Bank for Economic Development in Africa, the Union of Arab Chambers, and the Investment and Technology Promotion Office of UNIDO in Bahrain. It will look at how Arab-African economic integration can be achieved by promoting bankable investment opportunities for entrepreneurs, SMEs, and macro investments from the region. Some of the other programs in the forum are The Future Finance Forum, the Tourism Investment Forum, the Bloomberg New Energy Finance UAE Forum, the Distressed and Alternative Investment Forum and The Finoverse Arabian Forum.

A series of professional training sessions led by field experts will be held one day prior to the forum, and workshops aimed at adding value and experience about investment opportunities will be open to participants. Those will serve as an opportunity for governments, startups, small and medium sized companies and investors to touch base and achieve economic growth for their respective countries.
“AIM, the largest investment forum, has succeeded in its previous editions in solidifying the position of the UAE on the global investment map, and in pushing forward its progress over the next 50 years,” said Dawood Al Shezawi, Chairman of the Annual Investment Meeting. He added that this event will provide businessmen and investors with opportunities to establish agreements and partnerships, introduce new channels of work, and expand their businesses.
