WIC-SIF 2025
Sharjah FDI Office (Invest in Sharjah), in collaboration with the World Association of Investment Promotion Agencies (WAIPA) and the UAE Ministry of Investment, will host the 29th World Investment Conference (WIC) for the first time in Sharjah. The event will run alongside the Sharjah Investment Forum (SIF) on October 22–23, 2025, at Al Jawaher Reception and Convention Centre.
Since 1996, WIC has been a leading global platform for dialogue on Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), bringing together investment promotion agencies, ministers, CEOs, policymakers, and international institutions to address global economic trends, policy developments, and cooperation opportunities.
The fusion of these two global platforms will feature multiple conference tracks, including plenary sessions, a ministerial roundtable, ambassador-IPA meetings, B2B consultations, and networking activities to strengthen public–private sector collaboration. Participants will gain insights into investment policies, share best practices, and explore concrete partnership and investment opportunities while shaping the global investment agenda.
