An exclusive, closed-door summit in Dubai, the Majlis convenes leading funders, family offices, and investors under the theme “Transforming Capital into Impactful Legacies.” Over three days, participants join roundtables and workshops with sovereign funds, DFIs, financial leaders, and innovators on climate resilience, circular economy, and tech-enabled social ventures. The Pearl Initiative joins as an alliance partner, bringing its expertise in governance and values-driven philanthropy to the convening. Fellows leave with deeper insights and a personal capstone to guide their capital deployment. As part of the Majlis, Pearl Initiative’s Governance in Philanthropy Programme is partnering with Amaly Legacy to co-host two key sessions:

  • A Storytelling Workshop with an audience of UHNWIs and family offices
  • A Philanthropy Roundtable with leading institutions including HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank, IFC (World Bank), IMF, Reliance Foundation, Equity Group Foundation, Saif Al Ghurair Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation’s Energy Alliance, African Natural Capital Alliance, The Nature Conservancy, and others
Through these sessions, Pearl Initiative’s Governance in Philanthropy Programme will highlight how transparency, accountability, and effective reporting structures are essential to ensuring philanthropy and impact investing achieve their full potential. The sessions will create opportunities to share best practices, learn from peers, and address governance challenges that are central to advancing sustainable impact in the region.The Majlis is convened alongside the UAE Ministry of Energy & Infrastructure, In5 (Dubai Holding’s innovation accelerator), and the Observer Research Foundation, with the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) as innovation demo collaborator.
