Additionally, Investopia is reaching out to investor communities to provide them with an opportunity to view the projects’ evaluations according to their strategies and investment portfolios. By building comprehensive information that is permanently accessible to the Investopia community, The Marketplace is aiming to be the go-to platform for investment projects.

The “Marketplace” currently includes various investment projects proposed by many countries around the world, particularly in the energy sector such as hydropower, and projects in agriculture from Kyrgyzstan. In addition, there are projects in sectors such as energy and electricity from Romania.

Investopia adopts an ambitious target of accelerating the pace of attracting investments to the country and attracting 550 billion dirhams of inward foreign direct investment to the country by 2031, reaching one trillion dirhams by 2051.
