        Following the success of last year’s edition, which hosted 58 revered
        speakers - including seven ministers from  such as UAE, Egypt, Pakistan,
        Morocco, Benin, and Lebanon - several key speakers have expressed their
        interest in returning. The inaugural summit welcomed over 400
        chairpersons and CEOs, and over 2000 C-level attendees, collectively
        overseeing a capital base of USD 3.5 trillion across 140 financial
        institutions with a combined corporate wealth of USD 900 billion. The

        summit also saw participation from the representatives of the UAE Ministry
        of Economy and leading conglomerates such as Trip.com, Asset
        Management One (Japan), and Beijing Academy of AI, among others.



        His Excellency Helal Saeed Almarri, Director General of Dubai
        Department of Economy and Tourism, and DWTC, said: “Hosting the
        SuperBridge Summit 2024 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 diversification, high

        living standards, and thriving business environment make it the perfect
        destination to inspire and connect global innovators.”


        Vanessa Xu, Executive Chairman & CIO of VS Partners and co-

        founder of the 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.
