Launched in 2021 by H.H. Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, Investopia, a global investment platform initiated by the UAE government, has rapidly become a hub for forward-thinking investors seeking to leverage the UAE's innovative economy, as well as its strategic position as a global investment destination.

Under the leadership of Investopia Chairman H.E. Abdulla Bin Touq AlMarri, UAE Minister of Economy, the annual event aims to spark a dialogue between investors, business leaders, and governments to help drive more investments and incubate vital innovation to help propel industries that will shape the future of our planet.

In its latest edition, which was held at the St. Regis Abu Dhabi - Saadiyat Island Resort from February 28-29, 2024, Investopia continued to redefine the landscape of global investment by connecting investors with emerging opportunities in new economies.
