The event took place for the eighth time in this country, with the support and participation of Their Majesties King Abdullah II, Queen Rania Al Abdullah and the government of Jordan. It gathers together hundreds of government, business and civil society leaders from several countries in order to address the region’s challenges and boost the region’s potential for sustainable and inclusive development.
