Tim Balgobin, visionary founder of the Africa Dubai Business Summit (ADBS), has officially extended a global invitation to entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers, and innovators to attend the landmark ADBS 2025, taking place at the world-renowned Atlantis The Palm in Dubai.
Far more than a conventional conference, ADBS is a transformative business platform dedicated to driving actionable partnerships, investment deals, and strategic dialogue between Africa and the Gulf region. With Dubai as a rising epicenter for global finance and innovation, the summit aims to elevate Africa–Middle East relations to unprecedented heights.
“This is the Game Changing Africa Dubai Business Summit—the only platform of its kind uniting Africa and the Gulf through business, investment, and leadership,” said Balgobin. “We’re calling on visionaries and decision-makers who dare to think boldly. This is your moment. This is your summit.”

- Executive Panels: Engaging discussions featuring heads of state, ministers, and CEOs across sectors such as energy, fintech, infrastructure, agriculture, and technology.
- Deal Room Sessions: Curated B2B matchmaking and investment-focused discussions designed to link African ventures with Gulf capital.
- Africa-Gulf Awards Gala: A prestigious celebration recognizing impactful business leaders and innovators driving cross-continental success.

ADBS 2025 is set to catalyze high-impact projects in infrastructure, green development, and public-private partnerships—positioning itself as a must-attend milestone for stakeholders serious about Africa-UAE economic collaboration.
Why Dubai?
With its dynamic business climate, world-class infrastructure, and global financial access, Dubai is perfectly positioned to serve as the bridge between Africa and the rest of the world. The Africa Dubai Business Summit gathers the right people, in the right place, at the right time.
Balgobin’s invitation is more than ceremonial—it’s a rallying cry for African entrepreneurs seeking international scale, Gulf investors pursuing growth markets, and policymakers shaping Africa’s next chapter.
“If you believe in Africa’s rise—if you believe in the power of strategic partnerships—then the Africa Dubai Business Summit is where your future begins,” Balgobin affirmed.
