As strategic partners, SALT and Investopia will work together to organize a prestigious, invitation-only conference featuring the world's leading investors, entrepreneurs and policy experts. The event will mark Investopia's second annual conference and SALT's second Middle East edition, following the success of SALT Abu Dhabi 2019. "We are thrilled to bring SALT back to the UAE, which is an important crossroads of capital and epicenter of innovation," said Scaramucci.

The gathering will be hosted in collaboration with the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADDED). 

H.E. Mohamed Ali Al Shorafa, Chairman of ADDED said, "Against the backdrop of a continuously evolving global market, convening with international peers to tackle current trade and investment headwinds, assessing economic indicators and exchanging expertise and perspectives is of vital importance if we are to stay ahead and pre-empt for shifts in market trajectories. This is the basis behind creating Investopia, to be able to engage the views and case studies of various international jurisdictions and operations, and why we are seeking partners like SALT."
