The first day of the forum will focus on discussing opportunities for Russia across various sectors of the economy. It will also cover prospects for cooperation among BRICS countries and the strategic partnership between Gulf countries and Russia, particularly in the realm of transportation and logistics. A significant part of the discussion will revolve around the development of bilateral economic relations between Russia and the UAE.
On the second day, the forum will delve into applied areas, addressing key challenges and opportunities related to transitioning to an economy driven by artificial intelligence. Additionally, there will be discussions on initiatives that empower women to effectively realize their potential in business, as well as the development of pharmaceutical and medical businesses through the creation of joint production facilities within the BRICS region. Trends in science and education will also be explored.
"Our mission is to assert Russia's technological leadership in the new economy and bolster the country's position as a key technological partner for MENA countries (the Middle East and North Africa)," - noted Alexander Rumyantsev, Director General of the World of Opportunities International Business Forum. - "The forum is designed to promote the expansion of Russian companies in international markets."
