Jordan will hold 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 alongside senior European and international officials and investors.
The region faces a period of considerable instability. Jordan’s stable political environment and consistent economic performance set it apart as a dependable destination for foreign investment and a partner that European institutions can work with confidently.
Organisers have prepared a range of projects across four sectors: water security, green energy, digital infrastructure, and strategic minerals. Each sits within the framework of Jordan’s Economic Modernisation Vision and is ready for direct investor engagement.
The conference gives practical expression to the Jordan–EU Strategic and Comprehensive Partnership. A European financial package of €3 billion will fund the work, deployed through instruments that reduce risk and support projects through to completion.
Jordan’s trade infrastructure strengthens the overall offer. The country connects regional and international supply chains and holds trade agreements covering more than 140 markets, giving investors a broad commercial base from which to operate.
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 hosts this conference from a position of institutional strength. Under His Majesty King Abdullah II, the Kingdom continues to advance its economic agenda and build further on its role as a centre for investment and long-term growth in the region.
