The Arab International Women’s Forum, a longstanding Institutional Partner of the Arab British Chamber of Commerce (ABCC), is delighted to once again be supporting the ABCC in their flagship event, the Arab British Economic Summit 2023 (ABES2023), which will take place on November 20th 2023 at the London Hilton Metropole in London, UK.
The Summit, under the banner of ‘Sustaining an Emerging Vision’, will highlight the strategic UK-Arab partnership with an emphasis on the widening scope of cooperation within various sectors and industries. The event will seek to identify practical initiatives that can strengthen transnational trade ties and bilateral investment flows in the post-pandemic, post-Brexit low-carbon economy. Discussion will concentrate on sustainable tourism, e-commerce, franchising, as well as the banking and financial industry.
This high-level event will bring together government officials, senior executives, thought leaders and decision-makers from across the UK and the Arab world to share their ideas and debate the diverse trade and investment opportunities that are emerging in the new technology-based industries.
