Dear K,

You're invited to BMI's upcoming Beyond Oil: UAE's Strategic Economic Expansion Into Africa <[[https://www.fitchsolutions.com/bmi/events/beyond-oil-uaes-strategic-economic-expansion-africa-26-06-24?utm_campaign=UAE-SSA&utm_medium=email&utm_source=marketo&utm_content=inv1txt&utm_term=crir-webinar]]> webinar.

The UAE is emerging as a significant economic and political player in Sub-Saharan Africa. As part of its efforts to diversify away from oil, Abu Dhabi will continue to expand its trade ties and investment in the region. The UAE will utilise these rapidly growing economic ties to continue to boost power projection in the region, with a particular focus on the Horn and the Red Sea basin.

In this webinar, we will give an overview of the UAE’s expansion into Sub-Saharan Africa and present our medium-term
outlook for this relationship. We will focus on the country’s significant investments in the renewables, agriculture and infrastructure sectors across various African markets, highlighting possible challenges and risks. We will also touch on the UAE’s military ties with the Horn of Africa and potential political spillovers from the rising competition for influence with other emerging powers such as Saudi Arabia and Turkiye.

I will be hosting this webinar on Wednesday, 26th June 2024 at 10:00 London BST | 11:00 South Africa SAST | 13:00 Dubai GST and I hope you can join us <[[https://www.fitchsolutions.com/bmi/events/beyond-oil-uaes-strategic-economic-expansion-africa-26-06-24?utm_campaign=UAE-SSA&utm_medium=email&utm_source=marketo&utm_content=inv1txt&utm_term=crir-webinar]]>.

Topics covered will include:


        - The UAE's economic diversification plan and increasing economic engagement with Sub-Saharan Africa.
        - Emirati investment into the region’s renewables and carbon offsetting credits.
        - The UAE’s different strategies to increase involvement in the agricultural sector of key SSA markets to bolster domestic food security and trade.
        - Abu Dhabi’s evolving role in the region’s infrastructure sector, especially through port investments.
        - The UAE’s increasing political and military presence in SSA and rising competition with other emerging markets such as Saudi Arabia and Turkiye.


You will also have the chance to participate in a live Q&A session where you can pose any questions you may have.

Places are offered free of charge and attendance on the day will be on a first come first served basis, with
