2023 AIIB ANNUAL MEETING
Welcome to the Eighth Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors of the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB).
The Annual Meeting is AIIB’s flagship event. It offers a unique occasion to showcase AIIB’s accomplishments and seek invaluable insights and guidance from shareholders on AIIB's strategic direction and initiatives. Moreover, it serves as a dynamic hub for dialogues among delegates from AIIB Members, alongside partners, business leaders, civil society organizations and experts from a range of fields from all around the world.
The 2023 AIIB Annual Meeting took place in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, on September 25-26, 2023. It marked AIIB's first in-person Annual Meeting since 2019, and the first one in Africa. The principal venue of the Annual Meeting was the Sharm El Sheikh International Congress Center (SHICC). Delegates participated in discussions to identify actions, best practices and opportunities that will help achieve sustainable economic growth and positive impact.
THEME
The theme of the Eighth Annual Meeting is “Sustainable Growth in a Challenging World,” which highlights AIIB’s continued commitment to supporting the key infrastructure demands of its Members, and alludes to the climate-centered global agenda, and the compounding challenges faced by its Members.
The logo of the 2023 AM draws inspiration from the iconic Giza Pyramids of Egypt, the letter A, and the number 8 in the Arabic numeral system. The eight pyramids together represent the eighth Annual Meeting of the Bank, while the negative space inside each pyramid symbolizes a road moving forward.
PROGRAM
The 2023 AIIB Annual Meeting program provides a rich variety of engaging sessions that explore the latest trends and issues relevant to sustainable growth and infrastructure connectivity across Asia and beyond.
