Abu Dhabi, 5 November 2024:

In cooperation with Invest Africa, the Ministry of Economy organized a new edition of The Africa Debate – UAE in

Dubai. Bringing together more than 400 businessmen and representatives of local, regional and global investment,
finance and trade agencies and institutions, the event explored the emerging economic, trade and investment
opportunities in Africa, contributing to enhancing cooperation between Asian and African markets through the UAE

in sectors of common interest. The UAE hosted the latest edition of The Africa Debate after the event held its last
10 successful editions in London.

The hosting of The Africa Debate aligns with the UAE’s adoption of an economic openness outlook and the
strengthening of trade and investment relations with all global partners, especially the African continent, which is
an economic, investment and trade destination full of sustainable partnership opportunities in the fields of energy,

infrastructure, digital transformation, renewable energy, agriculture, food safety, and new economy. This will
cement the UAE’s position as a leading economic powerhouse that links the African continent and various global
markets in line with the ‘We the UAE 2031’ vision.
