Testimonials:

We are going to sign two MoU… We met the CEO of each company in this event.

– Markus Wanko, Investment Director, Qatar Investment Authority

It’s the best meeting that we have attended, with very high calibre participants. We have created new relationships here and look forward to projects being developed because of this series. This is exactly what we are looking for, bringing all the partners together to create great value.

– General Manager, Kuwait Investment Authority

I’m confident that we’re going to raise capital. I would not be surprised if we were closing an investment in the next 30 days.

– Managing Principal, SpinalCyte LLC

The biggest benefit was access to truly interested investors in a market that we have no leads, no contacts, no expertise, so giving us access to people that otherwise we would have no exposure to.

– Will Rosellini, CEO, NexeonMedSystems

“The quality of the people attending is much better than your competitors.” – CEO, Global Security Network (GSN)

‘The WIL Economic Forum taught me how to deal with failure and the importance of a mentor. Every attendee, regardless of their background and experience, has something to learn or to share. I look forward to the next editions and chapters.

– Mashal Waqar, Co-founder and CTO, The Tempest

“As the pipeline of female talent continues to expand, it is up to corporate stakeholders to make ‘the business case’ for investing in women and act as a catalyst for change.”

– Dr. Leila Hoteit, Partner and Managing Director, Boston Consulting Group

Great meeting. There are three or four contacts where I’m sure we will move forward with. Naseba did a very good job and were very responsive. The one-to-one format is very good, I wouldn’t change this for anything. The interactive sessions were very good.

– Bhaskar Sharma, Group CEO, Moserbaer

Excellent platform for investment opportunities – each opportunity is pre-qualified according to our interests and needs. The quality of the business case was the key to our decision.

– CEO, First Qatar Investment Bank

A lot of potential in the Middle East, a very timely event. These one-on-one meetings are quite efficient. I met a number of companies that we will follow up with from an investor perspective. I sat down for 20 minutes each with the pre-screened company.

– Jens Zimmermann, Partner, New Silk Route Capital
