Conference Themes
What the Room Will Be
Talking About
8 panels and keynotes. Five themes running through all of it.
The Middle East Moment
The Middle East is no longer a frontier — it's a focal point for global capital. National transformation agendas, AI-driven sectors, and sovereign wealth funds deploying at record pace are redefining the region's economic role.
Fund Structures & Governance
As regulatory scrutiny intensifies, fund managers must navigate growing complexity across jurisdictions — from EU AIFMD II and ESG disclosure to the rapidly evolving frameworks in the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
Venture Capital & Innovation
The Middle East has emerged as a fast-growing VC hub. How are venture investors deploying across early and growth stages, scaling beyond local markets, and how is global capital engaging with regional innovation?
Value Creation & AI
From AI-enabled due diligence and supply chain optimisation to ESG integration and leadership development — the operational levers top GPs are pulling to drive measurable returns across their MENA portfolios.
Private Credit & Secondaries
Private credit and secondaries are rapidly gaining prominence in the Middle East. How are non-bank lenders supporting LBOs, infrastructure, and restructuring deals — and what opportunities are emerging as sovereign investors expand their private credit strategies?
