The World Free Zones Organization (World FZO) has introduced a fresh corporate identity, celebrating its 10th anniversary. The launch took place during the 10th World FZO World Congress in Dubai, themed ‘Zones and the Shifting Global Economic Structures – Unlocking New Investment Avenues.’
Alongside its new corporate identity, the World FZO unveiled an updated vision, mission, and purpose. The new vision is centered on driving global economic progress, sustainability, and inclusive growth through empowered free zones, setting a benchmark for economic advancement. The organization’s mission involves engaging with free zones worldwide, offering support through knowledge sharing, networking, advocacy, and consulting, thereby enhancing their positive impact on economic and social development within their respective nations.
Reaffirming its commitment to core values, the World FZO is enhancing its strategies by incorporating the latest practices and adapting to rapid global changes. This proactive approach aims to reshape perceptions and showcase its distinctive and innovative methods.
With this new identity, the World FZO emphasizes its commitment to launching meaningful and transparent initiatives that establish its role as a catalyst for positive global change.
The organization’s new corporate identity embodies three strategic pillars: Impact, Influence, and Trust. The focus on Impact is designed to promote sustainable growth and effectiveness, ensuring that free zones remain at the forefront of socio-economic development and innovation. Through its Influence pillar, the organization aims to shape the future of global trade and investment by advocating for policies that create growth opportunities for businesses and communities. Lastly, the Trust pillar reinforces the organization’s role as a reliable partner, providing the necessary advocacy to navigate the complexities of an evolving global landscape.
The World FZO has set key objectives for this new phase, which include exploring new investment opportunities and bolstering social contributions through support for net-zero initiatives.
Continuing to foster trade relations and partnerships among economic zones in its member countries, the World FZO is also expanding its activities to address emerging economic sectors. These sectors align with contemporary demands, including artificial intelligence, digital trade, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and advanced technologies.
