underscores our strategic role as a global nexus for innovation and cross-regional
investments. Our advanced financial infrastructure, commitment to cutting-edge
technologies, and visionary leadership align seamlessly with the summit's focus on
fostering the next generation of leaders. Dubai’s dedication to economic

SuperBridge Council, added: “We are thrilled to announce that we will be hosting
the second edition of the SuperBridge Summit, which represents a visionary and bold
initiative made possible through our collaboration with DWTC. The resounding
success of last year’s edition is a testament to the burgeoning economic prowess of
the world’s east and south. The summit serves as a hub for interdisciplinary and
international partnerships, highlighting emerging talents poised to tackle global
challenges directly.”

The SuperBridge Summit is known to be a key enabler of positive economic impact.
For instance, Trip.com, the founding sponsor of last year’s summit, inaugurated its
Dubai office following the event, undertaking major travel expansion initiatives.
Moreover, a prototype and live demo of tokenization platform called Project Diamond
of Coinbase Asset Management was featured at the summit. It sparked a lot of
engagement, and the platform is now live.
