Together with our valued partners, Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zone (RAKEZ), DHL Global Forwarding, SCHLÜTER GRAF, KLUDI, the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in Berlin, and the Chamber of Industry and Commerce Düsseldorf, the German Emirati Joint Council for Industry & Commerce (AHK) welcomed a strong audience of German business leaders, investors, and industry representatives to a high-level discussion on business opportunities in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Against the backdrop of the current geopolitical environment, the event provided valuable insights into the UAE's economic resilience, political outlook, and continued attractiveness as a regional hub for trade, investment, logistics, and industrial growth.
The programme covered a broad range of topics relevant to companies exploring market entry or expansion in the UAE. Discussions included investment opportunities in Ras Al Khaimah, practical experiences of German companies operating in the Emirates, current legal and tax considerations, as well as strategies for managing logistics and supply chain challenges in times of uncertainty.
Participants also benefited from first-hand perspectives shared by industry experts and business leaders with extensive experience in the region. The discussions highlighted the importance of planning security, business-friendly regulations, world-class infrastructure, and international connectivity as key factors driving investment and economic growth in the UAE.
Despite the challenges facing the wider region, one message remained clear throughout the event: the United Arab Emirates continues to offer attractive opportunities for international businesses and investors seeking long-term growth in the Middle East.
The exchange continued during a networking dinner, bringing together representatives from business, industry, government, and trade promotion organisations for valuable discussions and new connections.
We would like to thank all speakers, partners, and participants for contributing to the success of this event. We look forward to continuing the dialogue and further strengthening the economic partnership and trade relations between Germany and the United Arab Emirates.
