The sixth annual Milken Institute Middle East and Africa Summit provided a platform for world-renowned thought leaders, senior executives, investors, government officials, and philanthropists to address the globe’s most pressing issues and collectively develop strategies to ensure meaningful and prosperous lives for all. Centered on the theme “Investing in a Shared Future,” more than 1,000 attendees explored economic potential, technological revolutions, renewable energy, and other dynamic topics.



To distill the summit’s complex themes into a visually compelling and accessible format, a factsheet was designed by the Institute’s brand and design team, synthesizing the event description, areas of focus, upcoming events, and highlighting recent speakers.

The document’s visual hierarchy was structured to ensure information is easily digestible at a glance while offering deeper insights upon closer inspection: sections are labeled in the official event colors, and high-contrast elements with key data points ensure readability and visual impact as the reader moves across the page. The Speakers section makes use of structured typography and balanced white space to lay out information without overwhelming the reader. The design employs a refined palette of deep blues, golds, and neutral tones conveying professionalism and prestige. Diverse circular motifs and interconnected lines symbolize global connectivity and collaboration, mirroring the event’s setting in the Middle East and Africa. Geometric patterns reinforce stability and structure while maintaining an elegant, modern aesthetic.



The layout follows a structured progression, beginning with the event’s core theme, moving into regional insights, and concluding with key speakers. The factsheet includes a photo selection of impactful leaders who bring momentum to events. Photographed are Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah; President Willian Ruto of Kenya; His Excellency Khalid Al Falih; Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund, Kristalina Georgieva; His Excellency Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi; and His Excellency Khaldoon Khalifa Al Mubarak–speakers who contribute an immediate and powerful human connection to the information presented. In a summit centered on global collaboration and investment in a shared future, integrating the faces of key leaders reinforces the real-world impact of the discussions and decisions made at the summit.
