7/30/25, 3:44 PM Investopia Global launches new economy dialogues in Hyderabad and Andhra Pradesh
The dialogues underscored collaborative opportunities to nurture entrepreneurial ecosystems through
venture capital funding and institutional support from accelerators such as Hub71 and T-Hub. These
initiatives aim to accelerate the growth of Emirati and Indian startups and support their entry into global
markets. The sessions also explored avenues for cooperation in the industrial and defense sectors

under the UAE-India Comprehensive Economic Partnership, with a focus on advanced industries such
as artificial intelligence, space, and automotive technologies. Discussions included the potential to
establish joint industrial projects that leverage the competitive advantages of both economies.

Strengthening the future of food and agricultural security in both countries

The sessions reviewed opportunities to build strategic supply chains that strengthen food and
agricultural security in both countries, enhance joint trade and investment flows, and improve the
utilization of agricultural and export potential in the UAE and Andhra Pradesh. Discussions also
addressed future urban infrastructure plans in the UAE and Hyderabad, aimed at designing more
resilient and sustainable cities through the adoption of cutting-edge technologies. In addition, the

sessions highlighted the vital role of tourism as both a cultural and investment bridge between the two
nations, particularly in medical tourism, diverse cultural experiences, and digital tourism platforms.
Besides, opportunities to foster cooperation between Emirati and Indian tourism companies were

explored, along with plans to develop innovative marketing strategies and investment partnerships in the
tourism sector.

Stimulating investment in the bioeconomy and medical innovation

The sessions focused on encouraging the UAE and Indian business communities to expand
investments in the emerging bioeconomy - one of the fastest-growing and most impactful sectors for the
future of sustainable development. Discussions also emphasized the importance of long-term

investment in research and industrial infrastructure related to medical sciences, biotechnology, clinical
innovation, and the pharmaceutical industry. These efforts aim to strengthen bilateral cooperation,
enhance the competitiveness of healthcare systems in both countries, and support their transition

toward smarter, technology-driven models that are efficient, future-ready, and responsive to population
needs.

The Investopia Global dialogues in Andhra Pradesh witnessed the signing of a Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) between Investopia and the Andhra Pradesh Economic Development Board
(APEDB), to enhance cooperation and support the participation of a high-level delegation from the state

in the fifth edition of Investopia’s flagship summit, scheduled to be held in April next year in Abu Dhabi.
