Siham Al Harti spoke about investments in Islamic countries. The demand for halal products is growing worldwide. Any business in Oman needs a certificate for the production of halal products. 46 countries report high demand for halal products.

Speakers note that halal products keep pace with innovations and can be found on marketplaces where special applications are being created.

Anastasia Uskova: The future of finances is in Halal principles. Financial transactions should be based on Halal principles.

Nagham Majid Al-Azawi noted that the need in new technology is a significant challenge facing the halal production on the one part, and on the other part, special funds are needed for financing.

It is necessary to create a community of women or a fund for those engaged in the field of Halal production, to support and work in their jurisdictions, hold international exhibitions and support their start-ups.
