Dawood Al Shezawi, President of AIM Global Foundation, emphasised that

achieving success in organising such a globally inclusive edition in Abu Dhabi

reinforces the UAE's reputation as a pivotal meeting point for shaping the future of

the global economy.

The high-level Ministerial Session on International Trade discussed the role of open

trade policies and international trade agreements in shaping the future of open

markets, regional cooperation, and sustainable economic integration.

Moderated by Soraya Gargash, Principal Researcher at the UAE Ministry of

Economy, the panel engaged in a robust dialogue on how open trade policies and
international trade agreements can drive prosperity, foster stability, and serve as a

tool for innovation and inclusion.

H.E. Nougi Acosta Jaen, Minister of Finance of Costa Rica, emphasised

collaboration over fragmentation. "Trade must be built on shared standards and

regulatory harmonisation," he noted. He emphasised that real development stems

from transparency, coordination, and mutual respect among nations.
