The Regional Forum format brings governments, borrowers, corporates, DFIs, ECAs, commercial banks, EPCs, SOEs, and institutional investors into closer collaboration to accelerate project pipelines and structure bankable financing solutions across the MENAT region.

This year’s session will split into two curated regional dealmaking roundtables:

• MENA Table: Saudi Arabia, the GCC, North Africa, the Levant & Iraq
• Türkiye Table

The discussions will bring together ministers and senior market participants to explore live projects, financing opportunities, infrastructure investment, industrial development, energy transition, sovereign and commercial risk, and cross-border partnerships across the region.

Designed as interactive forums rather than traditional panel sessions, the roundtables encourage open discussion, networking, and practical collaboration between active market participants.

This invite-only roundtable is held under Chatham House Rule, offering a candid and collaborative space for senior borrowers and project sponsors. Together, we’ll exchange perspectives on best practices for working with ECAs, navigating regulatory environments, and balancing risk and return in today’s project finance landscape. Discussion will also cover innovative financing approaches - from blended and green solutions to new partnership models - alongside reflections on evolving market dynamics and the global economic outlook.
