About Gulf Connect

Gulf Connect is a long-term cross-regional platform jointly initiated by Sina Finance and SuperBridge Council, focused on strengthening connectivity between Asia and the GCC across capital, industry, technology, and regional cooperation.

Built on longstanding regional relationships and institutional connectivity across the Gulf, the platform brings together sovereign wealth funds, industrial groups, policymakers, technology companies, and investors to support deeper strategic engagement between Asia and the GCC.

Through strategic convenings, closed-door exchanges, investor engagement, and ecosystem building, Gulf Connect helps globally oriented companies and investors build trusted relationships and long-term regional relevance.

Gulf Connect is built on the belief that the next phase of global growth will increasingly be shaped by regional ecosystems, institutional trust, and long-term alignment.
