Following the success of our 2026 Forum, AIMA is delighted to confirm its return to the UAE in 2027, with a Save the Date to be announced shortly for this must-attend, half-day event for the global alternative investment community.

The AIMA Middle East Forum brings together leading voices from across the investment value chain - including managers, allocators, regulators, and fintech leaders - for strategic dialogue and high-value networking. The event explores the key issues shaping alternative asset managers in the UAE and the wider ecosystem, whether you are based in the region or looking to access its growing opportunities.

What to expect:

  • Capital raising in the Middle East: trends, tools, and tactics
  • The future of digital assets in the region
  • Regional regulatory perspectives
  • Why private markets remain top-of-mind for investors
  • Exclusive, manager-only investor roundtables
  • Roundtables on fintech innovation and talent development

Further details, including the confirmed date and agenda for 2027, will be shared in due course.
