Annual Investment Meeting 2020

AIM Digital 2020, a special edition of the Annual Investment Meeting, world’s leading investment platform, is a three-day Digital event in a secured digital environment that brings together investment experts, facilitating robust strategies and strengthening networking.

Conceived and organised by Strategic Exhibitions and Conference, the three-day Digital event under 6 Pillars is held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE, and Ruler of Dubai.

UNCTAD’s World Investment Report 2020 revealed that global foreign direct investment (FDI) flows are estimated to decline by up to 40% this year, from $1.54 trillion in 2019. Nevertheless, there are nations that showed more resilience despite the pandemic and continue to gain investor confidence. The UAE, for instance, ranked 19th globally on Kearney’s Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Confidence Index 2020, after surveying over 500 potential investors across the world with more than $500 million in revenue, indicating the country’s strong economic performance.

To address the decline in foreign direct investment (FDI) flows worldwide and achieve global economic recovery, transformation, and sustainability, AIM Digital, the world’s largest and most dynamic deal-making virtual platform based in the UAE brings you the FDI pillar that will utilize virtual technology to offer new investment opportunities and showcase fresh investment avenues to investors.
