KENSINGTON, U.K. - ColoradoDesk -- London, UK – The Reform Club on Pall Mall came alive with senior decision-makers from across the trade and investment spectrum. More than 120 guests—including legislators, embassy representatives, heads of export-promotion and FDI agencies, chamber executives, and top venture-capital and private-equity figures—gathered to celebrate two new publications: Bridging Borders: Trade Promotion and Foreign Direct Investment and Global Economic Opportunities 2025. The dinner was expertly chaired by Dr. Khalifa Saif Juma Saif Al Mehairbi, who serves as Chairman & Patron of the Global Economic Business Council.
Setting the Stage for Collaboration
The event commenced with an address from The Rt Hon. The Baroness Prashar CBE, who called attention to the interconnected nature of modern economies and the imperative of inclusivity in policy design. She underscored that shared prosperity depends on listening to diverse voices and forging consensus across sectors and borders.
Subsequently, H.E. Sven Jurgenson, former President of the UN Security Council and past UNICEF board chair, reflected on how global institutions have historically underpinned peace and development. He recounted successes and pitfalls of past multilateral efforts, urging renewed dedication to frameworks that facilitate cooperation rather than isolation.
Report Unveilings and Vision
Dr. Khalifa Al Mehairbi took the podium to formally introduce the two reports. He described Bridging Borders as a hands-on guide for agencies looking to modernize operations, integrate digital tools, and measure their success in promoting exports and attracting investment. Meanwhile, Global Economic Opportunities 2025 presents a curated list of more than USD 6 billion in projects across 63 nations, each vetted for viability and sustainability, offering investors clear pathways to participate in green energy, advanced manufacturing, and critical infrastructure.

Closing Reflections
To conclude the evening, The Hon. David Wells, Canadian Senator and Chair of the International Centre for Trade Transparency, urged all attendees to translate the evening's insights into concrete action. He emphasized the need for ongoing knowledge-sharing, coordinated policy responses, and robust networks to ensure markets remain open and resilient.
