The second edition expanded BIP beyond its initial sector and geographic focus, bringing a broader international network into the platform and opening conversations across AI, real estate, construction, green energy and banking. Held in Dubai in collaboration with EMAAR, BIP Summit 2024 brought together 60 companies and 80 participants from 13 countries, alongside government representatives, financial institutions and business leaders. The edition generated an investment lead of approximately $365 million from one project, marking BIP’s transition from its initial regional connections toward a more international investment network. The current BIP site also describes 2024 as the point of “International Expansion & Recognition.”
