The Background
India and United Arab Emirates (UAE) enjoy strong bonds of friendship based on age-old cultural, religious and economic ties between the two nations. Backed by the political and people-to-people interactions, bilateral trade continued to soar despite global headwinds.
3rd Edition
The Economic Times launched the India-UAE Strategic Conclave in 2017 when a new life had been infused in the age-old ties between the two nations by the signing of the comprehensive strategic partnership agreement. Much has been achieved since then and there has been sustained efforts by both sides to elevate this relationship further by involving stakeholders from political, diplomatic, business, trade and cultural circles.
Why Dubai
Dubai has a track-record of successfully hosting world-class business events, thanks in part to the spirit of cooperation which exists between the government, industry and local communities.
