Fortune Global Forum 2023

A NEW ERA FOR BUSINESS

Since 1995, the Fortune Global Forum^SM has been hosted by the editors of Fortune magazine in great cities on the dynamic frontiers of global business. The Forum creates a valuable opportunity for the CEOs of the world’s biggest multinational companies including Fortune Global 500^SM members to engage in discussions that not only identify best practices but also offer a common roadmap that addresses complex global issues.

A redirection of global energy flows and the remaking of geopolitical alliances across the Middle East have recently shifted the world’s attention to the Gulf region. And no better driver of this momentum exists than the UAE, a powerful player in the global economy, a leader in sustainable development and entrepreneurship, and a leading destination for trade, tourism, and global convening.

On the heels of the famed Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and on the cusp of COP28, the Fortune Global Forum will spotlight the UAE’s leadership in the region, its commitment to environmental protection and sustainability, and its distinctive role as a global innovation and trading hub. Abu Dhabi, the capital city of the UAE and the largest emirate, is home to a vast array of businesses at the forefront of innovation across many sectors, including financial services and agtech. In addition to world-class infrastructure, Abu Dhabi offers an accessible location, a competitive tax system, and a multicultural environment that attracts talent from around the world.

The Forum will feature the hallmarks of all Fortune live events: engaging content, impactful networking, meaningful takeaways, and the very best in curated activities, cuisine, and entertainment.
