The meeting, which formed part of the 'Investopia Communities' roundtable series
at Investopia 2025 in Abu Dhabi, was attended by more than 19 UAE companies
that are part of the initiative.
The meeting discussed the UAE's investment opportunities and potential in the

increase their investments and expand their business operations in prominent
foreign markets at the regional and international levels.
In this regard, Bin Touq said, 'The private sector is a key partner in promoting the

efforts will help us move closer to the achievement of the 'We the UAE 2031'
vision's goal to raise the country's GDP to AED3 trillion by the next decade.'
