KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- The Organizing Committee of AIM Congress, the world’s leading investment platform, has announced the launch of AIM China Chapter 2025, marking the platform’s first international expansion outside the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Taking place Nov 7 to 8 at the National Exhibition & Convention Center (NECC) in Shanghai, it will be held alongside the China International Import Expo (CIIE), according to a statement.

“Hosting AIM’s first international chapter in Shanghai reflects our shared vision for deeper UAE–China collaboration and a collective commitment to building economies on the pillars of sustainability, technology, and global collaboration.

“AIM China Chapter will serve as a platform for strengthening our partnership, driving new opportunities in trade, opening the door to strategic investment, and promoting private-sector cooperation and knowledge sharing,” said UAE Minister of Foreign Trade and AIM Congress President, Dr Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi.

Meanwhile, AIM Global Foundation President, Dawood Al Shezawi said: “As we co-celebrate alongside CIIE, one of the world’s most influential trade events, AIM will spotlight opportunities across advanced manufacturing, digital finance, artificial intelligence, and clean energy—sectors driving global investment.”

Set to mark a milestone in its global expansion, the AIM China Chapter will be held under the theme “Deciphering the Intertwined Engines of Globalization: ‘From Going Out’ to ‘Going Up’”. The forum will bring together leaders from government, business, and finance to explore how economies are shifting from outward expansion to innovation-driven growth and value creation.

Aligning with the vision of the UAE and China to strengthen trade, technology, and development, AIM China Chapter 2025 establishes a model of collaboration, serving as a catalyst for knowledge exchange and partnership building, reaffirming AIM Congress’s role as a trusted platform shaping investment.

In 2024, bilateral trade reached US$101.8 billion, with China accounting for 18 per cent of UAE imports, making it the UAE’s largest trading partner. (US$1=RM4.22)

Founded in the UAE, AIM Congress has become a leading global platform for investment, shaping economic development through international cooperation.
