28 Mar, 2025

Dubai Chambers recently held discussions with Indian Ambassador to the UAE, His Excellency Sunjay Sudhir, to strengthen trade and investment ties between Dubai and India. His Excellency, Eng. Sultan bin Saeed Al Mansoori, Chairman of Dubai Chambers, emphasized the significance of India as Dubai’s largest foreign business partner and reiterated the commitment to supporting Indian businesses in their expansion efforts. The meeting highlighted the importance of enhancing bilateral cooperation across various sectors to boost economic relations.

Al Mansoori acknowledged the vital role Indian companies play in Dubai’s business ecosystem. With Indian businesses leading in terms of foreign company presence, Dubai Chambers aims to facilitate their growth by offering resources and access to promising global markets. The Indian Business Council, a key branch of Dubai Chamber of Commerce, was also discussed for its role in streamlining trade regulations and fostering stronger business ties between India and Dubai.

The meeting explored new avenues for cooperation, particularly in information technology, logistics, and aviation. The World Logistics Passport initiative was highlighted as a game-changer in improving global trade flows, reducing costs, and enhancing logistics efficiency. Dubai’s strategic location as a global trade and investment hub presents Indian companies with vast opportunities to expand their footprint in international markets.

Indian entrepreneurs were also recognized as key contributors to Dubai’s economic growth. Dubai International Chamber’s 33 global representative offices, including its Mumbai office, play a crucial role in attracting Indian investments and supporting Dubai-based companies in expanding into India. This network enhances trade and investment flows between both regions.

With 16,623 new Indian companies joining the Dubai Chamber of Commerce in 2024, the strong trade and investment relations between Dubai and India continue to grow. The discussions reaffirmed Dubai’s position as a preferred destination for Indian businesses looking to scale regionally and globally.
