The organizers emphasize that today's decisions will shape the world the next generation inherits, stressing the importance of involving emerging leaders in governance and decision-making. Alois Zwinggi, president and CEO of the WEF, highlights that this inaugural meeting will bring together diverse generations and viewpoints to discuss practical solutions for decades ahead.
The meeting will focus on six themes: geopolitical uncertainty, technological disruption, economic resilience and prosperity, leadership, science and innovation, and climate and nature. AI will be a central topic, with new research on its potential for sustainable development in the region. In an era of rapid technological, economic, and geopolitical changes, preparing future leaders is deemed essential, according to Mohammed Al Gergawi, the Minister of Cabinet Affairs and principal chairman of the event.
