Introduction:

THE WORLD IS FACING UNPRECEDENTED THREATS, BUT this is also a unique time of new opportunities, said Richard Attias, CEO of the FII Institute, welcoming a high caliber international audience to Riyadh for the FII’s sixth edition. Attias told the three-day conference: “We are on the road to a new global order, and at the FII Institute we are proud to make our contribution.”

Held at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center, this year’s conference was the largest ever staged by the FII Institute. It included 500 speakers and 170 sessions delivered on five stages, and attracted 7,500 attendees and more than 300 media representatives who had come from all over the world. The conference included four immersive summits, on the vital topics of the new energy economy, the clash of generations, the growing role of cryptocurrencies, and the future of Africa. The topics at the event included investment challenges relating to sovereign wealth funds, sustainability, gender equality, the global energy crisis, megacities,
supply shocks, inflation, digital and AI technology, and geopolitical trends. Investment agreements announced at the conference totaled more than US$9 billon. Eleven technology developers partnered with FII introduced their latest innovations and solutions, all designed to create a more sustainable and equitable future. The sixth edition also included the largest-ever carbon credit auction, which was a carbon-neutral event, and the creation of five regional investment companies across the Middle East region, designed to attract investment of up to US$24 billion to key sectors. Attias said: “We are so proud of the FII conference this year. Twenty-eight valuable investment deals were signed and we hosted speakers and delegates from all over the world, who were keen to build new partnerships.”
