“Some of the world’s leading thinkers on global trade and investment will descend on Dubai to take part in this conference. The objective is clear; discuss, debate and explore the issues that will help business leaders and policymakers better understand – and capitalise on – the new global trade order,” said His Excellency Abdulla al Saleh, Undersecretary for Foreign Trade at the UAE Ministry of Economy.
“As such, announcing our support at UAE Ministry of Economy for this signature event, made perfect strategic sense. We look forward to contributing to this important dialogue, and working with international partners to drive Dubai’s economic growth agenda,” he added.
