Investopia Europe announces next edition in Berlin in June 2026 to advance UAE-Europe partnerships in the new economy, tourism, entrepreneurship, and energy
Investopia Europe announced the relocation of its annual event from Milan to Berlin, with the fourth edition of the Investopia Europe Dialogues scheduled to take place in June 2026. The move comes as part of a collaborative effort with ministries and government entities from both the United Arab Emirates and the Federal Republic of Germany, as well as Investopia's strategic partners, most notably GITEX. The announcement was made during a UAE delegation's official visit to Germany, headed by H.E. Alia bint Abdulla Al Mazrouei, Minister of State for Entrepreneurship. The Investopia Europe event will be hosted next year in conjunction with the second edition of GITEX Europe, reflecting Investopia Europe's vision to expand its footprint across the continent. The initiative aims to strengthen connections and foster impactful partnerships among business communities across key sectors of the new economy, including entrepreneurship, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), tourism, energy, renewable energy, infrastructure, transportation, artificial intelligence (AI), advanced technologies, and emerging financial trends, with a focus on sustainable growth. H.E. Alia Al Mazrouei said: 'The UAE and Germany share strong and diversified economic and trade relations, underpinned by a common vision to position themselves as global hubs for innovation and technology. We view the German private sector as a key partner in advancing the UAE's business and investment landscape. As the world's third-largest economy, Germany presents significant potential for deepening economic cooperation and exploring new avenues for development. The upcoming fourth edition of Investopia Europe in Berlin offers a timely opportunity to further strengthen these ties. Berlin, as a center of the new economy, serves as a strategic gateway for investment across priority sectors such as entrepreneurship, energy, artificial intelligence, aviation, digital infrastructure, and sustainable technologies.' H.E. continued: 'Through Investopia Berlin, we aim to establish a dynamic platform for dialogue that generates tangible economic and investment opportunities for both the UAE and German business communities. We are committed to enabling growth by providing innovative solutions and supportive frameworks for SMEs in both markets.' David Tabet, COO of Investopia, said: 'At the upcoming Investopia Europe Dialogues in Berlin — a city celebrated for its vibrancy, heritage, and innovation — we seek to deepen the connection between investors and business leaders, unlocking new investment and business opportunities across the UAE and European markets. The objective is to cultivate an environment that supports investment in emerging sectors of the new economy, thereby contributing to a more agile, inclusive, and sustainable global economic landscape. Key focus areas include artificial intelligence, space technologies, digital assets, and food security, while fostering strategic partnerships that align with evolving global investment trends and regional economic transformations.' Since its inception, Investopia has successfully convened four flagship editions in the UAE and hosted 14 international sessions across major global cities, including three in Milan. The most recent, the third edition, took place in early May, attracting over 10,000 participants – including global leaders, experts, investors, entrepreneurs, and industry specialists. Investopia continues to serve as a dynamic platform aimed at shaping a sustainable economic future, reinforcing the UAE's status as a premier global investment destination, and fostering meaningful economic partnerships. It focuses on unlocking high-potential investment opportunities in key sectors such as Fintech, space, aviation technologies, artificial intelligence, green energy, the circular economy, and fashion.

UAE's $3.7 billion tech economy takes spotlight in Berlin at inaugural GITEX EUROPE
Europe's largest inaugural tech, startup and digital investment event, GITEX EUROPE x Ai Everything, was held at Messe Berlin this week, with the UAE's innovation taking centre stage. The three-day show, which concluded on Friday, brought together more than 1,400 exhibitors, 600 top global investors and over 500 speakers from 100-plus countries, together marking the strongest cross-border tech mobilisation the continent has seen. National pavilions stretched from India to Italy, Morocco to South Korea and 35 European states, alongside participation from the UAE showcasing how the nation is becoming a global reference for technology advancement across multiple industries including governance and public service. The UAE's IT services market is forecast to achieve record growth to reach $3.76 billion in 2025, according to fresh Statista data, a momentum that was impossible to miss on a show floor featuring 65 UAE organisations - the nation's biggest ever entrepreneurship and digital investment delegation to a European tech event. The Ministry of Economy pavilion presented a cohort of home-grown tech ventures aimed squarely at addressing global challenges. Among them is Zeroe, delivering comprehensive carbon management to accelerate net zero goals; Hikmah Labs, merging AI with cutting-edge research to transform industries; IngenioData, deploying AR and BLE based indoor navigation, asset tracking and analytics; and Responsive Drip Irrigation, creators of the world's first plant-responsive irrigation system, which allows the plant to self-regulate its own water delivery. Among the dignitaries inaugurating the momentous first European edition, Alia Al Mazrouei, UAE Minister of State for Entrepreneurship, shared in her welcome address: 'Germany is now the UAE's second largest trading partner within the EU. And Berlin as a global capital of innovation plays a central role in that story. It mirrors the trajectory; dynamic, diverse, and globally connected. Together, we are shaping a new economic corridor, one powered by innovation and grounded in common purpose.' Joining the UAE delegation were Hazza Al Mansoori, the first Emirati astronaut to travel to space and Nora Al Matrooshi, the first female Emirati astronaut. Hazza Al Mansouri shared insights on the aerospace evolution in a media briefing, 'Artificial intelligence in space is something that we are experimenting with. For example, Simon, a floating robot, and making the lunar gateway, the space station more autonomous, because it's not going to be inhabited all the time.' Organised by Digital Dubai, the Dubai Pavilion highlights the city's AI-powered evolution and advanced public services featuring 12 key government and private entities, including, Digital Dubai, Dubai Police, General Directorate of Identity and Foreigners Affairs (GDIFA), Dubai Civil Defense, DIFC Courts, the Dubai Electronic Security Center, the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, Dubai Customs, Dubai Future Foundation, and Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), alongside e& and Emaratech as Platinum Partners. Among the top innovations on show include the Dubai Dashboard, a unified city-wide platform offering a 360-degree view of data and indicators across various city sectors; alongside the Dubai Monitor, DubaiNow, Smart Employee, and UAE PASS, the national digital ID that enables secure identity verification for citizens through facial recognition tech. Dubai Police presented its autonomous policing ecosystem including Ghaith, a smart patrol car. Also on showcase was Salama, an AI-powered platform that streamlines Dubai's residency services with automated renewals and instant visa assistance - making government interaction seamless and future-ready.

Younus Al Nasser, Chief Executive, Dubai Data and Statistics Establishment, Digital Dubai, noted: 'AI must be treated not as a tool to deploy but as a solution to integrate-strategically, ethically and sustainably. At Digital Dubai, we've learned that balancing innovation with accountability means aligning exploration with clear national outcomes. Whether adopting off-the-shelf AI models or investing in sovereign systems, the key lies in speed, agility and our ability to remain globally connected. These are Dubai's greatest strengths - rapid execution and ecosystem-wide collaboration that turn AI potential into real-world public value.' UAE's digital innovation momentum extends beyond the pavilions, with leading tech hubs, enterprises, startups and strategic investors participating across the show. Leading innovation district, Tecom Investments features the innovation success stories and synergies of Dubai's tech ecosystem; alongside Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) reinforcing Dubai's vision for future urban mobility and sustainable infrastructure.
