the cultivation of the next generation of industry leaders.

The event will highlight the Middle East’s significant transition from an oil-dependent economy to
becoming a leader in innovation, largely facilitated by free-trade agreements that encourage
international business investment and foster technological advancements. As the region diversifies
its economy, attention is also turning to ASEAN, which experts predict, will emerge as the world’s
fourth-largest economy by 2030. During the summit, the experts will explore the abundant
resources and top-notch governance that fuelled this growth while highlighting the challenges
faced due to climate change and the need for collaborative energy transition efforts.

In the financial sector, the experts will further highlight the future of digital banking, which is being
shaped by institutions adapting to the rapid pace of disruption and innovation. Furthermore, the
rise of fintech innovations, which is paving the way for Web 3.0, will be discussed while focusing on
overcoming regulatory hurdles to ensure inclusive growth. The financial landscape is also
witnessing a shift toward green energy, with predictions of a staggering USD 11 trillion investment in
renewable asset-backed cryptocurrencies by 2050. Blockchain technology is set to redefine
financial intermediation, highlighting the importance of democratising access to capital to keep
pace with these rapid changes. The summit will explore these trends, which illustrate a future
where innovation, sustainability and collaboration will be at the forefront of economic development
in Global East and Global South.
The summit’s theme ‘Innovate for Next Gen’ is an embodiment of its unwavering commitment to
foster development. The term ‘innovate’ in its theme exemplifies its proactive commitment to
create solutions for the world’s most pressing concerns, whereas ‘NextGen’ focusses on the
multidimensional elements of global economic power: technology, leadership and investment.
