The MEIRA Annual Conference 2025 in Muscat set a strong tone for the year, bringing together more than 1,000 participants from across the GCC and beyond. The event featured insightful discussions, thought-provoking panels, and invaluable networking with peers from the IR community across the MENA region.

The conference highlighted key themes shaping the future of investor relations in the region:

advancing capital market maturity

enhancing global investor access

integrating ESG priorities

strengthening transparency

leveraging technology

One of the highlights for us was our workshop “Reporting Fandamentals: Pains & Gains” — a deep dive into the challenges and opportunities of corporate reporting. The session sparked significant interest and provided practical recommendations that participants can apply directly in their daily IR practices. For those who would like to gain even deeper insights, we invite you to join our dedicated webinar:

We are also proud to share that our projects were shortlisted five times at this year’s MEIRA IR Awards — with ACWA Power (twice!), Salik, DTC, OQGN, and Emsteel recognized for their excellence. This acknowledgment reflects the strong partnerships we have built with our clients and the impact of our collaborative work.

A special congratulations goes to Wassim El Hayek from Salik: the company received the award as Leading Corporate for Investor Relations, while Wassim himself was honored with the title Best Investor Relations Professional. These achievements highlight both the company’s commitment to transparent and effective investor relations and Wassim’s personal professionalism and dedication.

We leave Muscat energized and inspired, proud of the recognition our clients received and grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the region’s IR dialogue. The MEIRA Annual Conference once again proved that investor relations is not just about compliance, but about building trust, shaping capital markets, and driving sustainable growth.
