RIYADH — The Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute announced on Wednesday that FII PRIORITY Europe Summit will take place in Rome, capital of Italy, from June 17 to 19, 2026. Global leaders will gather together to brainstorm a defining question for the continent’s future: how capital can secure Europe’s competitiveness, resilience, and strategic autonomy in a rapidly changing world? Under the theme “Europe Reimagined: Capital, Sovereignty & Strategic Autonomy,” FII PRIORITY Europe 2026 will bring together policymakers, investors, innovators, and decision-makers to examine how capital, industrial policy, and cross-border collaboration can strengthen Europe’s long-term position across energy, technology, security, and finance. The summit comes at a key moment as Europe moves from crisis management to long-term reinvention. With euro area growth projected at around 1.2 percent in 2026, FII PRIORITY Europe will focus on how patient private capital, smarter policy frameworks, and strategic investment can unlock higher productivity, resilient supply chains, and a stronger industrial base. Core topics at the summit will include AI, data and digital infrastructure, capital markets and investment flows, green industrial policy and energy, supply chains, trade and security, advanced manufacturing and deep tech, as well as real estate, tourism, and urban revitalization. The three-day event will feature plenary sessions, labs, conclaves, networking breakfasts, bilateral meetings, and partner dinners designed to foster high-level exchange and real-world outcomes. Building on the legacy of FII Institute's flagship annual conference in Riyadh, FII PRIORITY summits are designed as engines of actionable change in influential cities around the world.
