In line with its efforts to strengthen regional and international investment partnerships that support Arab food security objectives, the Arab Authority for Agricultural Investment and Development (AAAID) held a high-level meeting chaired by H.E. Dr. Obaid Saif Hamad Al Zaabi, Chairman of the Board of AAAID, with a delegation from Kuwait Investment Company led by H.E. Mr. Fawaz Sulaiman Al-Ahmed, Chief Executive Officer, and attended by officials from both sides.
The discussions focused on prospects for cooperation and the potential for building strategic partnerships aimed at advancing mutual interests and promoting sustainable agricultural development across the Arab region. The meeting also reviewed a range of proposed investment opportunities and projects in key sectors, including fodder production, organic waste recycling and fertilizer manufacturing, seed potato production, table egg production, organic olive oil, and the processing of dried fish and marine products.
The meeting comes as part of the activation of a memorandum of understanding signed between the two parties on 18 December 2025, reflecting their shared commitment to moving from institutional cooperation frameworks toward the identification and development of concrete, executable investment projects.
This engagement underscores AAAID’s strategic direction to broaden its partnerships with leading investment institutions, with a view to strengthening agricultural value chains and enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of agricultural investments across the Arab region.
