Driving Economic Synergy Across Borders and Generations
Building upon the resounding success and strategic milestones of its three preceding editions, the UAE Inter-Businesswomen Councils Forum returns for its landmark 4th installment. Co-organized by the CCI France UAE (French Emirati Women Committee), the Abu Dhabi Businesswomen Council (ADBWC), and the Sharjah Businesswomen Council (SBWC), this premier tripartite gathering unites executive leaders, board members, policy-makers, and youth innovators.
In an era of rapid economic evolution, market volatility, and global complexity, the 2026 forum establishes an elite platform bridging generational roots, capital resilience, high-stakes operational execution, next-gen leadership, and artificial intelligence integration across business communities.
Core Pillars of the 2026 Edition:
- Roots: Honoring human and generational foundations in alignment with the Year of the Family, exploring how heritage and core values drive enduring organizational resilience. \
- Readiness: Tackling structural agility, advanced crisis management, and high-hazard regulated operations in high-stakes environments.
- Maximizing Financial Resilience: Delivering the economic and financial edge needed for scaling performance, private equity governance, and capital defense.
What to Expect on the Agenda:
- High-Level Strategic Panels: Executive discussions featuring prominent leaders spanning corporate governance, legal risk mitigation, freezone innovation, and advanced industrial execution.
- Next-Gen Horizons Youth Panel: Empowering emerging leaders and young founders (ages 25–35) alongside senior investment mentors to address sovereign portfolio strategy, e-commerce scaling, and venture access.
- The AI Masterclass: A hands-on, 75-minute interactive workshop.
