The IsDB Group Annual Meetings convene in response to an invitation extended by the Egyptian government, which targets reinforcing co-operation with IsDB and its member states.
The annual meetings, along with the large array of events and functions taking place on their sidelines over the four-day period, are expected to attract a large number of representatives from regional and international financial and development institutions, business leaders and the wider community.

A number of events will be organised on the sidelines of the gathering, including a business forum for the private sector, along with activities held in preparation for Egypt’s hosting of the United Nations Climate Change Conference (UNCCC) COP27.
