The Italian-Arab Joint Chamber of Commerce is organizing the Arab - Italian Business Forum, to be held in Milan on March 31, 2026, with the participation of senior government officials, institutional representatives, and prominent business figures from Italy and the Arab world.

The Arab - Italian Business Forum is the Joint Italian-Arab Chamber of Commerce’s flagship annual event and aims to strengthen the long-standing economic, commercial, and historical ties between Italy and Arab countries.

The forum will provide a high-level platform for dialogue, knowledge exchange, and networking, bringing together representatives from Italian and Arab institutions, investment agencies, financial institutions, and the private sector. It will offer participants the opportunity to engage directly with key decision-makers and explore tangible cooperation and investment opportunities.

The forum’s program includes opening and keynote speeches, the signing of memoranda of understanding, and a series of sessions focusing on strategic partnerships between Italy and selected Arab countries, including Egypt, Oman, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The working sessions will address discussions on priority topics such as private sector–led development in the Middle East and North Africa region, conventional and Islamic finance, the Mattei Plan and its impact on Arab countries in Africa, global markets, infrastructure and logistics, artificial intelligence applications, and water and environmental challenges.

B2B bilateral meetings and dedicated discussion sessions will contribute to strengthening interaction among participants, making the forum an essential event for policymakers, investors, entrepreneurs, and stakeholders committed to advancing sustainable economic growth and cooperation between Italy and the Arab world.
