The conference, which was themed “Transforming Lives with Infrastructure – Investing in and Building a Better World for All,” focused on the critical role of sustainable, ethical, and efficient infrastructure investment.

Over the course of the two-day event, ADPIC displayed an impressive portfolio of more than 600 projects, collectively valued at approximately AED 200 billion. This provided a unique opportunity for ADPIC to engage with key stakeholders from the engineering, construction, and infrastructure sectors. The centre’s projects, which span various domains of capital infrastructure development, were of significant interest to global industry leaders, organisations, and peers, further cementing Abu Dhabi’s reputation as a leader in the field.

Engineer Maysarah Mahmoud Eid, the Acting Director General of ADPIC, represented the centre in a panel discussion, which was led by FIDIC Board Member Jose Joaquine Ortiz Garcia.

By showcasing our strategic initiatives and engaging with global peers, we reaffirm our mission to not only advance Abu Dhabi’s infrastructure but also to contribute to the broader dialogue on the best, most sustainable construction practices. Our participation in this conference is a powerful reminder of the collective effort needed to build a better world, and we remain dedicated to leading by example.”
