Elyazia Jasim Alhosani - With its diverse competitive advantages, the ideal business environment for investors and entrepreneurs, world-class advanced infrastructure, and high-quality professional expertise, the UAE has become a destination of choice for leading international businesses and institutions, major economic gatherings, and important international conferences. It has indeed become the bridge connecting countries across the world.
The UAE offers a business environment full of opportunities and services ensured by the government and society to encourage investment.
The country is economically stable due to continuous growth, an open policy for economic diversification, strong relationships with major world economies, and the ease of business procedures resulting from smart digital transformation. Business and industrial centres in the UAE are numerous.
The country has many free zones for foreign investments and an advanced network of roads, bridges, and airports, which make it easier for businesses to access global markets. In addition, it is the epitome of multiculturalism and home to skilled workers hailing from every corner of the world, thanks to its simple laws and flexible, attractive business regulations.
The UAE’s strategic location makes it an important trade and economic gateway for international companies. The country has demonstrated that it is a suitable destination for conference tourism by hosting a number of international conferences and events. Its platforms have addressed the most significant and crucial global issues in an effort to find solutions that will benefit people all over the world.
As a result, the UAE has gained an international reputation, and has become a permanent destination for this distinctive type of tourism, especially since the country has state-of-the-art airports and the world’s best airlines. It also boasts robust regulatory capabilities and simple residency and visa procedures. It was by no means easy for the UAE to reach this distinguished position in organising international events. Indeed, that position is the result of careful proactive planning and adopting strategies that enhance sustainability in the tourism sector, such as the National Tourism Strategy 2031.
The Strategy aims to achieve the best tourism identity around the world in partnership with both federal and local tourism authorities, as well as a number of international institutions and global companies. Above all, the country has gained “international confidence” in its effective role in the international arena and the appreciation of countries around the world for the leadership of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE.
The UAE will be hosting COP28 in November and December this year. It has already hosted GITEX Technology Week, the Global Investment Forum, the Global Future Councils, Expo Dubai, and other political, economic, and military conferences, exhibitions and events, all of which underscore international recognition of the UAE’s organisational capabilities and strengthens its position as a global destination.
Just as the UAE hosts the regional headquarters of major international media, technology, programming, electronic marketing, and other companies, it also hosts international conferences and events that discuss economic, climate, and other contemporary issues and crises to present solutions for a better life for people around the world.
