At the @AVCJ Private Equity Forum, Walid Majdalani, Head of Private Equity Emerging Markets at #Investcorp, shared his perspective on the panel “Middle East: Building the Foundations for Long-Term Growth.” He highlighted the continued maturation of the region’s private markets ecosystem, with private equity, infrastructure and private credit evolving alongside deeper institutional engagement. Walid also emphasized that value creation increasingly depends on transforming family-owned businesses into scalable, professionally managed regional platforms. At the same time, cross-border momentum, particularly across the Asia–GCC corridor, is accelerating, as both capital and companies expand in both directions. #AVCJAbuDhabi
