About the World Investment Forum 

Created as a premier event by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the WIF has historically served as a primary platform for facilitating high-level discourse on the world’s most pressing investment and development challenges. The Forum is organized by UNCTAD’s Division on Investment and Enterprise, which seeks to ensure inclusive growth and sustainable development worldwide, and supported by Abu Dhabi’s Ministry of Economy and Department of Economic Development (ADDED) as lead partners.

Over a five-day period, participants will have the opportunity to attend a series of conferences, workshops, debates and performances. The event will focus on critical topics such as investment for development, food security, energy, supply chain resilience, growing productive capacity in the poorest countries, as well as climate finance and investment. 

Invited speakers will include renowned personalities, international experts, policymakers, business leaders, sovereign wealth fund managers, civil society representatives and many others. The event will serve as a high-level platform for dialogue and action on investment for development.
