SuperBridge Summit 2024 to convene ‘Next Gen’ global leaders for economic innovation

Jul 02, 2024 BY ANNIEIM

The Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) and the SuperBridge Council have announced that the highly anticipated second edition of the
SuperBridge Summit 2024 (https://SuperBridgeDubai.com) will be held on 15-16 October 2024, at the One&Only One Za’abeel, Dubai.
The two-day summit will coincide with GITEX Global, bringing together future leaders of the global economy in one venue.

The theme of this year’s summit – ‘Innovate for Next Gen’, will explore diverse elements shaping the future of global economy, across
five key topics: ‘Economic Powerhouse’, ‘Technology and Industrial Transformation’, ‘Leadership and Human Equity’, ‘Life and
Wellbeing’, and ‘Wealth and Investment’. The term ‘innovate’ in the theme embodies a proactive approach to seeking solutions for the
world’s most urgent challenges, while ‘Next Gen’ underscores the multi-dimensional facets of global economic forces, technology,
leadership, wellbeing and investment.
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.”
