[HKGCC X Dubai Chambers] Going Global Series – Dubai Business Opportunities Exchange Conference

*Registration by email only. The Middle East has increasingly attracted attention as a premier emerging market, with regional economic growth skyrocketing in recent years. The United Arab Emirates ranked first in the Arab region and 5th globally in the IMD World Competitiveness Ranking 2025. It boasts well-established infrastructure, a stable political system, and one of the most liberal trade regimes in the Gulf region. The “WE the UAE 2031” strategy outlines a clear roadmap to diversify the economy and achieve a world-leading position in quality of life and attracting top global talent. Among the seven emirates in the UAE, Dubai aligns most closely with Hong Kong’s competitive strengths, particularly in finance and technology. It is the most populous city in the country, with expatriates comprising 92% of its population. On the financial front, Dubai hosts the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), seamlessly connecting economies across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia with Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Given its strategic location, it also serves as a critical trading gateway to the broader Middle East and Africa. With various key industries being championed in Dubai—including AI, medical technology, blockchain, and renewable energy—Dubai Chambers will share the latest market opportunities, investment environment insights, and support policies available to potential investors. In addition, representatives from successfully established enterprises in Dubai will share their first-hand investment experiences. This will allow potential investors to learn about the local business culture and the strategies needed to succeed. Attendees will receive practical suggestions for market entry, alongside a dedicated business matchmaking session arranged for Hong Kong enterprises. If you are interested in joining this complimentary seminar, please contact the Secretariat at [email protected]. Please note that Dubai Chambers requires profile screening prior to confirming attendance. Companies operating in the financial and technology sectors will be given priority.
