Dubai played host to a high-level economic conference yesterday, held alongside the World Government Summit, where influential business leaders, policymakers, and members of Syria’s global diaspora gathered to discuss critical strategies for rebuilding key sectors such as manufacturing, agriculture, and technology.
Among the distinguished voices shaping the discussions was Dr. Anas A. Kozbari, Managing Partner and CEO of Invest Group Overseas, who emphasized the essential role of collaboration between the government and private sector in driving Syria’s economic recovery.
Dr. Kozbari, a globally recognized expert in international investment, contributed a strategic document published in parallel with the event, underscoring the necessity of fostering open dialogue between Syria’s new leadership and business communities. He stressed that sustainable economic growth depends on transparent discussions that align policy reforms with real-world business needs.
“Bridging the gap between policy and practice is essential,” Dr. Kozbari stated. “By ensuring that economic regulations and reforms reflect on-the-ground realities, we can create a business-friendly environment that supports investment, enhances trade, and incentivizes entrepreneurship.”
The conference also highlighted the immense potential of Syria’s global diaspora, many of whom have successfully built businesses across the Middle East and beyond. Their expertise, capital, and networks are seen as invaluable assets in revitalizing key industries and accelerating economic stability.
Dr. Kozbari’s involvement in the summit reinforced the importance of strategic partnerships, economic transparency, and targeted investments in rebuilding Syria’s core sectors.
