Jordan will hold the Jordan–EU Investment Conference 2026 on 21 April at the Dead Sea. His Majesty King Abdullah II will serve as patron, and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will attend the event alongside senior European and international officials and investors.
The conference takes place as regional conditions remain unsettled. Jordan’s political stability and its consistent approach to economic management give it a firm platform to attract international capital and act as a reliable partner for European institutions.
The event will present investors with a set of projects across water security, green energy, digital infrastructure, and strategic minerals. These opportunities are aligned with Jordan’s Economic Modernisation Vision and have been prepared to a level where investor engagement can begin without delay.
The Jordan–EU Strategic and Comprehensive Partnership forms the basis for the conference. A European financial package worth €3 billion will back the projects, using instruments designed to reduce investor exposure and support faster project completion.
Jordan’s position within the region’s trade network gives the offer additional substance. The country connects supply chains to regional and global markets, and trade agreements covering more than 140 markets extend the reach available to investors operating from Jordanian soil.
Minister of Investment, Dr. Tareq Abu Ghazaleh, said: “The Conference is focused on presenting investors with clearly defined, executable opportunities that enable direct engagement in high-value projects within a stable and competitive business environment. It is designed to facilitate partnerships and translate opportunities into tangible investments.”
He added: “The Conference will serve as a results-oriented platform, featuring sector-specific tracks and structured business engagements, including B2B and G2B meetings, aimed at accelerating investment flows and strengthening private–public collaboration.”
EU Ambassador Pierre-Christophe Chatzizavas highlighted: “We are proud to announce the EU-Jordan Investment Conference, a high-level event marked by the participation of Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. This signals the strength and resilience of our partnership, especially in times of regional uncertainty. The conference marks the start of a renewed, elevated collaboration that will bring our business communities closer together and unlock new opportunities, stimulating greater EU investment in Jordan’s dynamic economy.”
Hosting this conference at this moment speaks to the direction Jordan has chosen. Under His Majesty King Abdullah II, the Kingdom moves forward on its economic path with purpose, building on its established role as a hub for investment and sustainable growth in the region.
