The speakers emphasized the significance of implementing strategies and policies to foster
economic openness globally. The importance of expanding businesses in international markets,
finding ways to overcome the challenges of international trade, and capitalizing on the
government's support to enhance global competitiveness were also highlighted.

During the sessions, the experts emphasized the influence of digitalization on Italy's
pharmaceutical industry and highlighted the significant role played by trade promotion
organizations in fostering its growth. This holds particular significance as the UAE’s position
serves as an economic gateway to Europe, offering access to the region market.

The session’s participants emphasized the crucial role of capital markets and organizations in
promoting the development of the SME sector. They noted that these entities play a crucial role
by providing financing and facilitating transformations such as intergenerational transfer and the
integration of environmental aspects. Furthermore, they highlighted that the fifth industrial
revolution presents a potential turning point and opportunity to accelerate investments and enhance
competitiveness. This, in turn, opens up avenues for expanding businesses into foreign markets
and supporting their growth.

The participants emphasized the importance of establishing robust connections to achieve success,
be it for SMEs or large corporations. This is crucial as it enables the gathering of resources and
expertise from different countries, enabling them to capitalize on emerging business prospects.

contributing to a favourable environment for growth and economic prosperity, while fostering
