About The Event
The GCC region is rapidly emerging as a powerhouse for investment and economic growth, transforming the region into a magnet for international capital.
Various factors fuel the region’s rise: state of the art supply chain infrastructure in countries like Oman, burgeoning data markets and cutting-edge technology adoption in countries like the Emirates, and strong government surpluses propelled by energy production.
In addition to expanding the region’s economy by 6.9% in 2022, member states significantly grew their FDI inflows last year, indicating a wealth of promising investment opportunities across diverse sectors. Estimates suggest that FDI into the Middle East, North Africa, and Pakistan (MENAP) area reached $56 billion in 2022 and will reach an additional $66 billion by 2023.
