DUBAI, UAE, Feb. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Summary: During an
interview for the launch of Belt & Road Summit 2020 in
Dubai, Mark Mobius said that the
infrastructure development plays a critical role in unlocking a
country's growth potential. He added, "Infrastructure is an
investment opportunity for investors like us."
The recent Belt and Road (BRI) investment on new project
contracts worth $127.7 billion in 61
countries by Chinese companies has increased international
attention, especially in the Middle
East region. In 2019, China
had a banner year for bringing nearly 152 countries to join hands
in developing the next level of economic growth and global trade,
highlighting the UAE signed deals worth $3.4
billion through Belt & Road Initiative.
In support of the China-UAE's signature economic ties, over
1,000 senior officials from many host countries will gather at the
Middle East's first of its kind
event, Belt & Road Summit 2020 on 15-16 April 2020 in Dubai. Organised by Apollo Group under the
name of ODO, the Summit will see some of the major BRI projects
from 70+ countries gathering to connect with giant financial
institutions, consulate generals, top-notch investors, legal
counsels and many government agencies while unlocking huge foreign
investment opportunities.
Among 60+ keynote speakers, Dubai South's CEO -
Logistics District, Mohsen
Ahmad, said, "Logistics and supply chain are at the
heart of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) global development and
Dubai has a clear strategy which
reflects its strong support to this project through the Dubai Silk
Road Strategy. The Belt and Road Summit 2020 provides Dubai South
with the ideal platform to showcase its efforts towards helping
achieve this strategy. Through its infrastructure, facilities,
business solutions, and supportive policy environment, Dubai South
has been enabling organizations from around the world to tap
Dubai's uniqueness as a hub for
the successful implementation of the BRI."
Father of the Emerging Markets, Mark
Mobius, said, "As an Emerging Market Investor, I am
very aware of the critical role infrastructure development plays in
unlocking a countries growth potential. At the same time,
infrastructure is an investment opportunity for investors like us.
The Belt & Road initiative is probably the largest global
infrastructure program ever initiated and I look forward to talking
to the people involved in this major enterprise at the Belt &
Road Summit in Dubai," in an
interview leading up to the summit.
Commenting on the participation at the summit, Dr
Ramadan Alblooshi, CEO of Dubai Healthcare City, who will
be presenting a keynote at the summit, said, "Economic evidence
confirms that the status of population health is associated with
economic growth. The relationship is dynamic and a fundamental
priority of any community. With aging population, incidence of
chronic illness and evolving Healthcare technology, there is a very
delicate balance for policymakers to continuously advance
developments. Our challenge is to harmonize well-being and economic
policies to improve the outcomes."
Some of the partners include OBOR Europe, Belt & Road Sri
Lanka and Silk Road Association, to name a few. To learn more about
