Economic experts said Jordan is an advanced hub for financial and technological innovation and a safe destination for investment.

Experts said despite the rapid and unstable events that have been taking place in the region, especially during the coronavirus pandemic and its limited financial resources, Jordan is still able to move steadily towards economic stability through its pioneering and innovative human expertise and capabilities, especially in technological sectors. It has remained a safe destination for investment, according to the closing statement and recommendations of the Blockchain, Innovation & Entrepreneurship summit, issued by the higher committee of Jordan economic Forum, which has been organized recently by AFAQ Group.

Experts added that the Jordanian economic sectors have a great capacity to cope with the digital development and transformation, especially in the area of financial and technological services.

"In spite of the scientific progress, we still need to develop some university curricula and specializations to enable them to keep up with the global acceleration in the process of digital transformation, especially with regard to cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and entrepreneurship," experts noted.

According to the experts, Jordan continues to enjoy regional and global status as a safe destination for investment, thanks to its institutional, scientific and technological advances, as it becomes an Arab financial hub for financial companies after some legislation is amended.

Participants in the forum, including more than 30 economists and bankers panelists, commended the high and advanced level of organizing this important event along careful selection of topics and the importance of the information that have been provided.

Participants included various local governmental and official bodies, embassies operating in Jordan, and representatives from some countries, such as Kuwait, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Palestine, the United Arab Emirates, Britain, Cyprus and Russia.
