Global Investors Forum 2025: A Strategic Platform Connecting the GCC with Eurasia Through a Unified Investment Ecosystem

Tbilisi is preparing to host the Global Investors Forum (GIF 2025), a major international economic platform uniting the GCC and Eurasia through a unified investment ecosystem aimed at accelerating growth and expanding cross-border opportunities. Organised with EurAsia Gulf, ICC Georgia, and main partner AGI Holding, and supported by the ICC, the Embassy of Georgia to the UAE, and the Hong Kong–Middle East Business Chamber, the forum will take place on 4–5 December 2025. The event will gather more than 1,500 participants, 70 institutional investors, and 50 speakers from over 40 countries for discussions and matchmaking across sustainability and technology, tourism, digital assets and securitisation, real estate and infrastructure, and Agri-tech and food security. It will also feature the signing of major MoUs and launch new partnerships in clean energy, sustainable technologies, medical tourism, smart infrastructure, and digital agriculture. High-profile attendees include H.E. Dr Abdullah Belhaif Al Nuaimi, H.E. Hamid Mohammed bin Salem, H.E. Aisha Mohammed Saeed Al Mulla, Dr Taysir Al Khunaizi, Dr Sadeddine Mneimne, Aref bin Ali Al Abbar, Arif Anis MBE, John W.H. Denton, Chamas Awad, and Hani Idris.

Leaders emphasised the rising importance of sustainability, ESG standards, and AI-driven investment tools in navigating global risks. Dr Al Nuaimi highlighted the growing financial relevance of green technologies and nature-positive infrastructure, while Dr Mneimne described GIF as a strategic platform reshaping global economic cooperation and accelerating integration between East and West. Arif Anis noted the forum’s timely role as global FDI declines, with digital currencies and AI transforming capital flows. John Denton underscored the private sector’s responsibility in sustaining global economic resilience. Hosting GIF 2025 reinforces Georgia’s position as a bridge between the Middle East, Europe, and Central Asia amid rapidly expanding UAE–Georgia economic relations, including over USD 6 billion in investments and the UAE accounting for 63 percent of Georgia’s Arab trade. The forum is expected to produce high-value agreements focused on renewable energy, digital infrastructure, and innovation, strengthening the UAE’s role as a global hub linking GCC markets with Europe and Asia.
