Side by side with our partners at the Ministry of Economy, our main over-arching objective is to boost the performance of the macro-economy and the financial sector, via ongoing diversification initiatives,” Rashed Abdulkarim Al Blooshi, Under-Secretary of ADDED, said. 

“Investopia is a crucial platform that invites the private sector to be more involved in the economic vision, and we are delighted to be hosting such a prestigious event in Abu Dhabi during Q1 2023, as we bring together the private and government sector onto one platform,” he added.
