The forum aims to enhance economic dialogue, build effective international partnerships, and reaffirm Jordan’s position as an attractive investment environment. These efforts support sustainable growth, strengthen integration with international partners, and build lasting economic relations based on mutual interests.

The event will bring together accredited diplomatic representatives in the Kingdom, including ambassadors from brotherly Arab and friendly nations. This participation adds a strategic dimension, deepening partnerships between Jordan and these countries across the economic, investment, and trade sectors.

A Pivotal Opportunity for Reform and Growth
The forum serves as a crucial platform to underscore the strength of Jordan’s international partnerships and coordinate developmental priorities. It will also showcase the Economic Modernization Vision programs and the structural reforms the Kingdom has achieved in its national economic journey.

Key focus areas include:

Promising Investment Opportunities: Highlighting high-value-added sectors to solidify confidence in the national economy and stimulate new investment flows.

Market Expansion: Opening broader markets for Jordanian exports.

Strategic Pillars: Emphasizing the Economic Modernization Vision as the national framework for sustainable development by improving the business environment, boosting competitiveness, and generating jobs.

Private Sector and Public-Private Partnerships (PPP)
According to a JBA statement released Saturday, the forum will highlight the private sector as a primary partner in implementing the modernization vision. Discussions will explore prospects for strengthening Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) and their role in major investment projects, particularly in vital sectors such as water, transport, energy, infrastructure, industry, tourism, and IT.

The forum will also feature success stories of Jordanian businessmen as inspiring models of the private sector's ability to innovate and compete regionally and internationally.

Strategic Objectives
Ayman Al-Alawneh, President of the Jordanian Businessmen Association, stated that the forum seeks to attract new foreign investment and present Jordan as a safe and encouraging investment destination, despite regional instability.

Al-Alawneh added:

"The JBA is keen to promote promising investment opportunities and open new markets for Jordanian exports by building relationships with international partners, helping local products reach a global scale."

He noted that the forum’s outcomes are designed to align with national plans and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). He emphasized that the partnership between the public and private sectors is a "fundamental pillar for leveraging resources, transferring expertise, and ensuring the sustainability of projects with a tangible economic impact."
