See you in Aden
Welcome
His Excellency the Minister of State / Governor of Aden Governorate
Ahmed Hamed Lamlas
It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Aden Economic Conference, launched under the slogan "Aden... The Gateway to the Future."
Aden, with its rich history and unique strategic location, is not merely a city; it is a civilizational and economic project redefining the future of the entire region.
This conference convenes at a time when global geopolitical and economic shifts create an urgent need to activate the role of alternative maritime routes, positioning Aden as a pivotal strategic player. Our location on the route of 12% of global trade passing through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait qualifies us to reclaim our historical role as a regional trade center.
Our vision for this conference transcends being merely an event for showcasing opportunities; it is a comprehensive platform for building genuine strategic partnerships between the public and private sectors, locally and internationally. It is a long-term commitment to turning visions into tangible projects on the ground, contributing to sustainable development and economic prosperity for Aden and all of Yemen.
We call upon investors and partners from around the world to join us on this extraordinary journey and contribute to writing a new chapter in the renaissance of Aden, so that it may be, as it always has been... Yemen's gateway to the world.
Thank you, and we meet in Aden
