In the light of the current global situation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the event is aligned with the central theme for this year's isDB Group Annual Meeting "Respond, Restore, Restart: Post-COVID Resilience and Prosperity for all."

The event would be a favourable opportunity to host a rich dialogue between Bloomberg and the Islamic Development Bank on the increasing interest in green/Islamic finance across different institutions and countries, in light of its importance in accelerating sustainable development. The event would feature keynote speeches from H.E. the President, IsDB and Dr. Michael Bloomberg, former mayor of New York City and UN Ambassador on Climate change, followed by a high-level round table discussion involving other high-level dignitaries.
