Reflecting on the forum, he remarked that the 10th Investment Migration Forum—dubbed the “Davos of Investment Migration”—which concluded at the Ritz-Carlton in Dubai International Financial Centre, was nothing short of extraordinary. With over 400 delegates from more than 40 countries, the forum brought together industry leaders, government officials, and innovators to chart the future of global mobility.
