Executive Connect

Several of the scheduled meetings led to valuable business discussions. A few of them opened doors to potential collaborations and strategic partnerships, which we are now exploring further. We connected with a number of relevant players, notably ONUDI, the Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy, and startup accelerators from Portugal and the UAE.

Several of my scheduled meetings led to meaningful discussions around potential collaboration, particularly in AI-driven infrastructure security and public sector digital transformation. While still in the early stages, a few follow-ups are already planned.

The matchmaking was benchmark-setting — I’ve never experienced anything as professional and effective before. All meetings were valuable, and we are actively working on the agreed follow-ups. It looks promising, with most meetings expected to lead to meaningful outcomes.

The meeting you arranged with the Aerospace Minister of Kazakhstan stood out as a key highlight. The scheduled meetings led to several valuable business discussions, though it is still early to comment on concrete outcomes.

The networking opportunities and interactions with potential prospects, including suppliers and investors, stood out the most. The signs of successful outcomes are there, although these things naturally take time to materialise.

There were multiple high-potential conversations, especially with European fintech startups and investors. I’m happy to follow up directly if needed on specifics. I’m continuing conversations with a few participants that could lead to partnerships in the coming months.
