Jordan will host the Jordan–EU Investment Conference 2026 on 21 April at the Dead Sea. His Majesty King Abdullah II will serve as patron. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will attend, joined by senior European and international officials and investors.
Much of the surrounding region is in a difficult period. Jordan’s political steadiness and its ability to keep its economy on track in these conditions make it a practical and reliable base for foreign investment.
The conference will put before investors a set of projects in water security, green energy, digital infrastructure, and strategic minerals. These areas form the core of Jordan’s Economic Modernisation Vision, and the projects have been brought to a stage where investors can engage with them directly.
The Jordan–EU Strategic and Comprehensive Partnership sits behind the event. A European financial package of €3 billion will fund the work through instruments that lower risk for investors and support projects from agreement through to delivery.
Jordan’s trade network gives investors added reach. The country links regional and global supply chains and holds trade agreements covering more than 140 markets, providing a commercially well-positioned base for investors.
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 to Jordan, 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.”
Jordan moves into this conference on firm ground. Under His Majesty King Abdullah II, the Kingdom continues to advance its economic plans and adds to its standing as a centre for investment and sustained growth in the region.
