Middle East and North Africa

As a historical crossroads of trade, culture and knowledge, the Middle East and North Africa region plays a pivotal role in global geopolitics, energy markets and technological advancement.

MENA combines ancient traditions with next-generation innovation, with cities such as Dubai, Riyadh and Doha emerging as global business hubs. Additionally, the Middle East’s vast oil and gas resources make it a key energy player, while sustainability initiatives in solar energy and water desalination are shaping its future economic diversification.
