King Jordan presented the world at the World Economic Forum, which was attended by more than a thousand personalities from 50 countries, and this was an opportunity to attract foreign investments, especially the quality of them to Jordan and support for youth projects emerging. 27 27 projects out of 100 emerging projects were the product of Jordanian minds and creations.

 This is a high percentage and indicates that one of the main resources of this country is youth and entrepreneurship based on entrepreneurship and innovation. This leads me to talk about the Fourth Industrial Revolution, and that there are great opportunities that will accompany it and will emerge from it. It will play a vital role in attracting investments, because the emergence of entirely new sectors will create thousands of jobs, which should be emphasized at this stage.

 The Fourth Industrial Revolution, which depends on the great development of information technology and the availability of huge amounts of data, allows the creation of quality projects on the one hand and helping the productive sectors to reduce costs on the other.

In order to benefit from this revolution and attract more of these qualitative investments to Jordan, we need to promote Jordan differently and focus more on enacting legislation that is compatible with the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which necessarily requires a sophisticated economic, social and political structure.

 We also need to create an incubator environment for youth investments and ideas, first of which is an investment window of their own, financing a facilitator, creating more incubating institutions and most importantly focusing on creativity and innovation in the educational system and creating smart villages.

The world is fast changing, and if we do not change with it, we will not be able to develop and we will not be able to attract investment, one of the most important things that we must focus on to create jobs, it is urgent to come up with a national strategy of innovation and innovation to keep pace with this rapid change and entry into this world.
