The Arab-India Economic Forum (AIEF) would be organised in strategic partnership with the Consulate General of India in Dubai on November 16 and 17.
AIEF hopes to focus on growth sectors, address policy frameworks and guidelines to attract Arab investors and industrialists in addition to being a strong platform for Indian businesses aiming to explore the potential of the Middle East market, the UAE's state-run WAM news agency said.
The Forum will also bring together political and business leaders from the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Jordan, Egypt and India to discuss strategies and solutions for investor challenges in India due to taxation and policy related issues as well as ways the government can assist in creating a conducive business environment for investors.
