The UAE Global Family Wealth and Investment Forum.
A window to new friendships and opportunities in the family business world.
DC Finance, one of the world’s most prominent family office communities, is excited to announce the UAE Family Wealth and Global Investment Forum to be held in Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
Join us as we bring together some of the region’s top families and family office executives seeking mutual growth, business ideas, and support.
A special mission of high net worth family members, major family business owners, and entrepreneurs from the US, Canada, EU, LATAM, and the Middle East will be joining the UAE and GCC family business community at this historic event.
We believe this Forum, as was done by DC Finance in other global destinations, will become an important meeting place for family offices and high-net-worth family members from all across the region and the world, who will enjoy discussions about cutting-edge technology, the family business next generation and other related topics.
