We, therefore, believe in the necessity to develop a global platform to bring together government officials, investors, startups, small medium-size enterprises, sector leaders, social entrepreneurs, and other stakeholders to lay down the foundations of building a responsible and sustainable future economy.”
Mr. Bin Touq further stressed on the significance of public-private sector partnerships in establishing a prosperous, competitive, sustainable economy that lives up to the expectations of both governmental agendas and investors. The latest partnership with Deloitte is one of the several vital partnerships the Summit will embark on during the upcoming phase.
