Corporate Maldives officially launched Bizweek today with the inaugural CEO Summit, held at JEN Maldives Malé by Shangri-La. The summit brought together leaders from across the public and private sectors for candid, forward-looking conversations on how to build a more resilient Maldivian economy.
The CEO Summit featured a high-level panel discussion with distinguished leaders, including Dr Abdulla Muththalib, Minister of Construction, Housing & Infrastructure; Ismail Rasheed, CEO and Managing Director of Dhiraagu; Mariyam Visam, Chief Commercial Officer at First National; Khalid Al-Hamadi, CEO and Managing Director of Ooredoo Maldives; and Moosa Nimal, Chief Business Officer at Bank of Maldives. Drawing from their diverse experience across critical sectors, the panellists provided valuable insights that shaped the day’s interactive roundtable sessions. Discussions covered key areas such as energy, food security, education, healthcare, tourism diversification, finance and investment, urban development, and governance. Participants worked collaboratively to identify pressing challenges and strategic opportunities, putting forward practical recommendations for driving inclusive and resilient economic growth in the Maldives.
The event also marked the launch of the new Corporate Maldives app and website, designed to enhance digital access to business intelligence and networking tools across the country.
