The Future Cities portfolio is designed to address the most important topics

related to the establishment of sustainable, resilient and inclusive cities

capable of tackling social, environmental and economic challenges.

The Digital Economy portfolio is dedicated to supporting the transformation

of the global economy into a digitally-driven economy, fostering a

sustainable, inclusive and secure digital future. Digital technologies present

unparalleled opportunities for economic transformation. They enable novel

interactions among individuals, communities, and governments, facilitate

access to information, streamline business operations and enhance
engagement with public authorities. Also, the diminishing of geographical and

physical barriers creates new avenues for economic, social and cultural

development, while also boosting regional and global competitiveness.

The Entrepreneurs portfolio brings together small and medium-sized

enterprises (SMEs) to showcase their innovative and successful projects. This

platform facilitates valuable networking opportunities with potential
customers, investors and partners. It also presents workshops and seminars

designed to equip SMEs with new skills and strategies for business growth.

Additionally, the portfolio aims to raise public awareness of the critical role

SMEs play in both local and global economies.

Continued success and attendance growth

Dawood Al Shezawi, Chairman of the Organizing Committee of AIM Congress,

emphasized the event's ongoing success and increasing participation. He said:

"Following the resounding success of the previous AIM Congress, which

attracted 12,427 prominent figures from 180 countries and featured 412
dialogue sessions exploring investment trends, challenges and opportunities,

we are committed to building on this momentum. The previous edition

featured 927 speakers, including industry leaders and policymakers, who

engaged in discussions to foster collective action and collaboration aimed at

driving sustainable global economic growth.”
