Astana will host the Astana International Forum 2025 (AIF 2025) on May 29–30, bringing together 600 prominent figures from around the world. Among them will be top politicians, corporate executives, international organization leaders, investors, and academics.
Confirmed attendees include Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame, Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama, Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, and Qatar’s Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim al-Thani.
AIF 2025 will feature a plenary session and 25 discussion panels centered around three major themes: foreign policy and international security, energy and climate change, and economy and finance.
The forum aims to foster open dialogue, attract foreign investment, sign strategic agreements, and support initiatives that promote global cooperation and sustainable development.
Ahead of the main event, Kazakhstan will also host the Kazakhstan–France and Kazakhstan–Italy Business Forums, reinforcing ties with its key economic partners.
Last year, the forum was cancelled due to nationwide flooding and the government's focus on emergency relief, making this year’s gathering especially significant.
