Bonn:TRENDS Global, a division of TRENDS Group, participated as the guest of honour at the 2026 Arab German Young Academy of Sciences and Humanities (AGYA) annual conference. The event, which took place in Bonn, Germany, was attended through TRENDS Global's virtual office in Germany.
According to Wam, Ali Abdullah Al Ali, Senior Researcher at TRENDS Research and Advisory, identified three primary areas for future cooperation during a panel discussion titled "Arab German Research Cooperation." These areas include joint work on global issues such as artificial intelligence and rapidly evolving geopolitical developments, connecting academic research with real-world needs to aid decisionmakers, and establishing long-term partnerships through joint research and academic projects.
Al Ali emphasized the importance of transforming ideas into tangible outcomes that benefit academic and research institutions. He expressed optimism that by 2040, Arab-German research cooperation would become more robust and interconnected, with collaborative knowledge being applied to enhance people's lives.
