President Mnangagwa Wraps Up Dubai Trip After World Governments Summit
President Emmerson Mnangagwa has returned home from Dubai after concluding a productive visit marked by his participation at the World Governments Summit (WGS) and a series of strategic investment-focused engagements.
Held under the theme “Shaping Future Governments,” the summit brought together world leaders, policymakers, and industry captains to exchange ideas on modern governance, economic reform, and sustainable development.
President Mnangagwa was among the distinguished global leaders invited to take part in high-level panel discussions, where he shared perspectives on governance innovation, economic transformation, technological advancement, and sustainable growth.
On the margins of the summit, the President held several meetings with senior executives and leaders of international corporations. During these engagements, he positioned Zimbabwe as an attractive investment destination, highlighting political stability, rich natural resources, and the ongoing economic reforms being implemented under the Second Republic.
The discussions generated notable investor interest across key sectors, including energy, mining, infrastructure, logistics, agriculture, and renewable energy, aligning with Zimbabwe’s broader industrialisation and economic growth agenda.
The visit also served to deepen bilateral relations between Zimbabwe and the United Arab Emirates, reinforcing diplomatic and economic cooperation with one of Zimbabwe’s major trade and investment partners in the Gulf region.
President Mnangagwa was bid farewell at Al Maktoum International Airport by UAE Minister of State Sheikh Shakhboot Bin Nahyan Al Nahyan, Zimbabwe’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Professor Amon Murwira, and Zimbabwe’s Ambassador to the UAE, Mr Isaac Moyo.
