Held under the theme “Harnessing MegaForces”, Investopia 2025 witnessed strong and active participation at
local, regional, and global levels. More than 100 speakers—including government leaders, ministers, investors,
business leaders, decision-makers, economists, high-net-worth individuals, and venture capital funds—
represented around 20 countries.
The event also attracted over 3,000 participants, alongside representatives from international financial and
economic institutions.
The event featured 51 panel discussions and 15 roundtable meetings, where participants emphasised the
importance of accelerating investments from both the public and private sectors in new and sustainable economy
sectors. They also called for strengthening economic openness, fostering productive trade partnerships to
navigate geopolitical shifts, and leveraging financial tools and funding mechanisms to bridge financing gaps
when developing new projects that support innovative circular economy models.
Discussions also explored ways to enhance the growth and success of startups and entrepreneurs, highlighting
structural reforms, economic diversification, and support for emerging industries as key measures to strengthen
economic resilience. Participants examined new strategies for protecting precious metal investments,
diversifying investment portfolios to mitigate future risks, and addressing the impact of rising interest rates on
the private sector.
Additionally, experts exchanged knowledge on best practices for handling the effects of the global debt crisis,
which continues to shape international economic realities.
The fourth edition of Investopia resulted in the signing of 24 partnership agreements and memoranda of
understanding (MoUs) across various sectors, including the new economy, circular economy, advanced
technologies, and entrepreneurship.
These include 14 new partnerships between Investopia and major companies and institutions at local, regional,
and global levels to enhance collaboration in future Investopia events and conferences, as well as to facilitate the
exchange of expertise in innovation and creative industries.
They include six agreements between the 100 Companies of the Future initiative and major corporations and
incubators to support startups in expanding within new economy sectors.
The agreements also include an MoU between the UAE Ministry of Economy and the UAE Independent Climate
Change Accelerators to advance the country’s transition to a circular economy.
The partnerships include six agreements signed by the Sino International Entrepreneurs Federation (SIEF) with
institutions and business incubators, including the Abu Dhabi Global Market Academy, Hub71, and Abu Dhabi
School of Management.
Investopia 2025 also marked the launch of a new initiative by the National Fund for Corporate Social
Responsibility (Majra)—the Sustainable Impact Challenge. This first-of-its-kind initiative in the UAE aims to
drive national development in priority sectors and showcase key sustainability and corporate social responsibility
projects.
Additionally, the event hosted the 100 Companies of the Future initiative, which unveiled the 2024 list of the top
100 future-focused companies. This initiative featured 15 sessions with 48 high-profile speakers, including
