                                 “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

                                 seamlessly with the summit’s focus on fostering the next
                                 generation of leaders. Dubai’s dedication to economic

                                 environment make it the perfect destination to inspire and connect
                                 global innovators.”


                                 Vanessa Xu, Executive Chairman & CIO of VS Partners and
                                 co-founder of the SuperBridge Council, added: “We are thrilled
                                 to announce that we will be hosting the second edition of the
                                 SuperBridge Summit, which represents a visionary and bold
                                 initiative made possible through our collaboration with DWTC. The
                                 resounding success of last year’s edition is a testament to the
                                 burgeoning economic prowess of the world’s east and south.
                                 Dubai has emerged as the epicentre of this transformation, leading
                                 the charge in diversity, global capital, innovation and trade flows.
                                 The summit serves as a hub for interdisciplinary and international
                                 partnerships, highlighting emerging talents poised to tackle global
                                 challenges directly.”


                                 The SuperBridge Summit is known to be a key enabler of positive
                                 economic impact. For instance, Trip.com, the founding sponsor of
                                 last year’s summit, inaugurated its Dubai office following the event,
                                 undertaking major travel expansion initiatives. Moreover, a
                                 prototype and live demo of tokenization platform called Project
                                 Diamond of Coinbase Asset Management was featured at the
                                 summit. It sparked a lot of engagement, and the platform is now
                                 live.
