UAE: Investopia, Confederation of Indian Industry unite to promote investment opportunities

Investopia, the global investment platform, signed an agreement with the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) to facilitate the exchange of expertise and knowledge and dialogue between business delegations.

In addition to promoting promising investment opportunities in Indian-UAE markets across new economic sectors, the two parties will organize joint events and conferences to enhance communication at the private sector level, thereby strengthening economic and investment ties between the two countries.

The agreement was signed by Badreya Al Maidoor, Assistant Undersecretary of the Support Services Sector at the UAE Ministry of Economy; and Sanjiv Bajaj, President of CII, in New Delhi, in the presence of H.E. Abdulla bin Touq Al Marri, UAE Minister of Economy, and Chairman of Investopia.

Badreya Al Maidoor said: “The signing of the agreement with the CII reflects Investopia’s vision and confidence in the Indian market. India is one of the most important global strategic markets teeming with promising investment and trade prospects. It builds on the global dialogue launched by the platform in India, the first outside of the UAE.”

“By joining hands with CII, we look forward to sharing experiences and knowledge and business delegations to promote investment opportunities in both Indian and UAE markets, across new economic sectors, especially circular economy, family businesses, renewable energy, tourism, technology, and innovation,” she added.

Through the partnership, CII will participate in the third edition of Investopia’s annual conference, which will be held in the UAE from 28 to 29 February 2024.

The global investment platform, Investopia was launched by the UAE government in September 2021. The 2023 edition of the event was held in the UAE capital Abu Dhabi last March, where it brought together more than 2,500 participants including decision-makers, investors, experts, academics, and media from around the world.

Over 1,000 overseas participants attended the conference to explore global investment opportunities under the theme “Envisioning opportunities in times of change”. The second edition also hosted 35 interactive sessions, more than 300 meetings, and a roundtable featuring more than 100 speakers and saw the signing of 14 partnership agreements.
