Bridging the Gap Between Capital and Projects

4 June 2026 in Rosewood Hotel Abu Dhabi

Host Partners

The New Energy Investor Summit is a high-level by invitation only convening platform at the intersection of policy, capital, and infrastructure.

Bringing together sovereign investors, institutional capital, policymakers, and global energy leaders, the Summit addresses the structural shifts reshaping energy markets, from security-driven regulation and cross-border fuel corridors to AI-enabled energy systems and giga-scale project finance.

Designed for decision-makers, not observers, the Summit focuses on one imperative: aligning capital with scalable, bankable, and strategically resilient energy infrastructure.

In an era defined by energy security and geopolitical realignment, the New Energy Investor Summit serves as a catalyst for partnerships that move from policy to projects and from capital pools to execution at scale.
