Abu dhabi: The Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) has announced a partnership with the Sino-International Entrepreneurs Federation (SIEF) to connect its global network of businesses and institutional investors with Abu Dhabi's growing ecosystem.
According to Emirates News Agency, the partnership was announced during Abu Dhabi Finance Week (ADFW 2025) and aims to reinforce Abu Dhabi as a destination for long-term capital, focusing on next-generation financial infrastructure and alternative investments through regional growth opportunities.
Badr Al-Olama, Director General of ADIO, highlighted that the partnership with SIEF enhances Abu Dhabi's connectivity with high-growth markets, especially at a time when businesses and institutional investors are seeking diversity, stability, and access to high-growth sectors. The collaboration is expected to create pathways for long-term capital to engage in developing future industries and a thriving financial ecosystem in Abu Dhabi.
William Wang, Chief Representative for the Middle East and Africa at SIEF, noted that Abu Dhabi's approach, through ADIO, aligns with SIEF's network requirements for coordinated financial infrastructure, regulatory clarity, and access to sovereign co-investment opportunities. He emphasized Abu Dhabi's strategic location and its proximity to US$1.8 trillion in sovereign capital as key attractions for qualified investors.
SIEF, a global non-profit organization, connects entrepreneurs, investors, and policymakers across Asia Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. Through this partnership, SIEF will introduce leading global businesses and institutional investors to explore opportunities in Abu Dhabi.
This collaboration positions ADIO to reinforce Abu Dhabi's status as a global gateway for long-term capital and a hub where international investors can advance the next generation of business infrastructure in the region.
