Dubai Chambers has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with DP World with an aim to enhance Dubai’s competitiveness in global investment.
The agreement will enable the chambers to leverage DP World’s global network to establish and host international representative offices at the group’s facilities around the world in support of the Dubai Global initiative.
The partnership aligns with the goals of the Dubai Global initiative launched by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Executive Council of Dubai, which aims to establish 50 international representative offices around the world by 2030 to attract foreign direct investment, multinational companies, and global talent to the emirate.
The Dubai Global initiative is led by Dubai International Chamber, one of the three chambers operating under the umbrella of Dubai Chambers, which last year opened 16 new representative offices to expand its global network across South America, Europe, Africa, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Australia, and the Middle East. The chamber is dedicated to supporting the expansion of local businesses seeking to extend their international reach and enter global markets.
