SuperBridge Summit 2024 to showcase the Middle East as top global hub for innovation and investment
The Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) and the SuperBridge Council have reiterated their commitment to cementing the Middle East’s eminence as the leading destination for innovation and entrepreneurship with the second edition of SuperBridge Summit 2024. The two-day summit will highlight the exemplary strategic initiatives and visionary leadership of Dubai as a global innovation nexus.
1Investors and industry leaders worldwide rank the Middle East among their top three destinations due to its strategic location, investor-friendly policies, and strong infrastructure. The region’s expanding industrial sector continues to attract global interest, fuelling Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) that promote economic diversification. Aligning with the UAE’s aim to bolster its industrial GDP, it is crucial to forge meaningful public-private partnerships that will further boost this goal, and effectively harness the natural and human resources of the region to nurture an industrial economy. Considering this scenario, the SuperBridge Summit is poised to serve as a major catalyst for collaboration and innovation.
Within the UAE, Dubai is emerging as a leading hub for diverse industries including technology, finance, healthcare, and real estate, driven by ongoing efforts to innovate and attract multinational corporations. Additionally, Dubai has gained prominence as a global hub for startups, owing to its state-of-the-art facilities and other innovations.
Shane Tedjarati, Co-founder of SuperBridge Council, said: “The UAE has maintained it top position in attracting Greenfield FDI projects for three consecutive years. These investments target prominent companies with extensive geographic coverage and diversified operations, showcasing dynamic global investment strategies. Cities such as Dubai are setting new benchmarks in innovation and investment standards by capitalising on their strategic location, progressive policies, and technological advancements.”
“The SuperBridge Summit 2024 is poised to convene visionary leaders, harnessing human equity to facilitate technological and industrial transformation in infrastructure. It will also act as a platform for pertinent discussions on groundbreaking technologies, sustainable practices, global competitiveness, as well as resilient economic and infrastructure solutions that can positively transform our cities and economies, while also empowering young entrepreneurs,” he added.
The SuperBridge Summit 2024 will facilitate a lucrative avenue for industry leaders, policymakers, and young entrepreneurs to explore innovative solutions and best practices in infrastructure development. It will encompass keynote presentations, panel discussions, and networking opportunities aimed at fostering collaboration and knowledge dissemination. The summit will be held under the theme ‘Innovate for Next Gen’ and is scheduled to take place from October 15 to 16, 2024 at One & Only One Za’abeel, Dubai.
