The UAE Growth and Investment Forum, organized, is making a comeback, reaffirming the nation’s growing reputation as a leading destination for entrepreneurs and investors. With its dynamic economy, forward-thinking government policies, and strategic access to global and regional markets, the UAE remains an attractive choice for businesses looking to launch, expand, or relocate.
The country recently secured the top spot in the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor’s (GEM) global rankings for the fourth consecutive year, reinforcing its status as the best environment worldwide for entrepreneurship and SME development. This sentiment is echoed by the Mastercard SME Confidence Index, which found that 91% of SMEs in the UAE remain positive about the future, with digital innovation, e-commerce, and financial access driving their growth.
In addition to its vibrant services and technology sectors, the UAE is now focusing on enhancing its manufacturing ecosystem. With cutting-edge infrastructure, favorable trade zones, and a wide consumer base, the country is positioning itself as a global hub for industrial and production businesses.
Forum Agenda to Address Real Business Challenges
The UAE Growth and Investment Forum will host a full day of insightful sessions, including expert-led panels, fireside chats, and practical presentations. Topics will cover a wide range of business concerns, from corporate taxation and regulatory compliance to accounting standards, digital transformation, and industry-specific growth opportunities.
Industry leaders and regulatory experts will be on hand to offer practical guidance and share experiences from the ground, providing a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and opportunities within the UAE market. The forum’s focus is to equip entrepreneurs and business owners with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate this competitive environment.
David George, Commercial Publisher & Head of Design, emphasized the forum’s significance: “The UAE Growth and Investment Forum adds real value by giving businesses access to the insights, updates, and connections they need to operate and grow in the UAE.”
Strategic Partnerships and a Strong Support Ecosystem
What sets this forum apart is its collaborative and content-driven approach. According to Tina Bhakthavalsalan, Head of Commercial Partnership and Events, the event’s agenda is designed based on continuous feedback from industry professionals, ensuring its relevance and practical value. “The forum covers the full spectrum of business operations and growth, making it highly relevant for SMEs and entrepreneurs,” she noted.
Participants will have the rare opportunity to engage with top management from UAE’s major free zones and corporations, helping them gain clarity on operational challenges and identify new investment pathways.
