FDI today is more than just capital exchanged between countries; it’s a powerful catalyst for
growth, facilitating cross-border capital movement, technology transfer, and job creation.
As firms increasingly expand their operations internationally, FDI plays an essential role in
enhancing productivity and fostering innovation within host countries.
Global trade, similarly, is a vital engine for economic growth, extending beyond the exchange of
goods across borders to spur innovation and create new opportunities worldwide.
The positive link between ESG initiatives and FDI inflows—amplified by open trade policies—makes
ESG strategies instrumental in enhancing the appeal of host countries to foreign investors, while
promoting long-term stability.
As strong ESG performance boosts investor confidence, policymakers who strategically integrate
ESG with trade openness position their economies as resilient and attractive destinations for global
capital, fostering diversified growth aligned with sustainable development.
The 14th edition of the AIM Congress will offer a dynamic mix of exhibitions, conferences, and
interactive sessions and workshops to keep exhibitors and attendees engaged in discussions on
how FDI and global trade drive economic growth.
The Congress will focus on eight key areas: FDI, Global Trade, Startups and Unicorns, Future Cities,
Future Finance, Global Manufacturing, the Digital Economy, and Entrepreneurship.
