The most recognized brand in the Islamic finance events sector, the IFN Forum, returns in 2013 with an extended agenda.
In addition to the 8th IFN Asia, the 3rd IFN Europe, the 2nd IFN Indonesia, and the 2nd IFN Saudi Arabia – in 2013 we will host the inaugural IFN Africa Forum. The renowned ‘Issuers & Investors' format will again feature at all IFN Forums ensuring both buy-side and sell-side are fully incorporated in these two day events.
With complimentary delegate passes for all issuers, investors, regulators and other senior and relevant key practitioners, the IFN Forum series provides you with opportunities no other events can.
