Doha: Under the theme 'The Road to 2030: Transforming the Global Economy,' the fifth edition of the Qatar Economic Forum, Powered by Bloomberg, will kick off Tuesday in Doha in collaboration with Media City Qatar.

The Forum will take place from May 20-22 and will bring together a distinguished group of global leaders and influential CEOs to discuss key issues that are reshaping the global Economic landscape.

This year, the Forum will focus on the profound shifts in global capital flows, especially in light of the Gulf region emerging as a major hub for financial power and foreign direct investment, supported by reforms that enhance the business environment, as well as the growing role of Gulf sovereign wealth funds as influential global financiers.

The new edition of the Forum comes at a time when the world is witnessing an unprecedented transformation in the flow of global capital. The Gulf’s role is no longer limited to being a major energy supplier; it has become one of the most influential financial centers worldwide. Gulf sovereign wealth funds are now leading the global financial scene, while bold Economic reforms have positioned the region as a top destination for foreign direct investment.

With the Forum taking place in 2025, marking the final stage toward achieving the 2030 visions of Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, and Bahrain, the Qatar Economic Forum this year will focus on the strategic decisions being made in the Gulf and their role in shaping global Economic trends.
