This exclusive event will explore the opportunities available to UK businesses looking to establish a presence in Dubai and expand into the wider Middle East, GCC, Africa and South Asia. Located adjacent to Dubai International Airport, DAFZ offers 100% foreign ownership alongside established aviation, logistics and cargo infrastructure, providing UK companies with a platform to access regional markets and centralise their international operations.
The conference will feature two panel discussions with senior UK, DAFZ and UAE stakeholders, followed by a networking lunch and opportunities for one-to-one meetings with the visiting delegation. We will be joined by Gary Hooper, Assistant Director, Sales and Business Accounts Management at DAFZ, and Saly Michel Besaibes, Senior Officer, Business Account, Europe and Americas.
The programme will be of particular interest to companies in aviation, cybersecurity, logistics and freight, automotive, consumer goods, engineering and building materials, healthcare and medical devices, electronics, and ICT, and to those for whom expansion into the GCC forms part of their growth strategy.
We invite you to join us for this gathering and to explore the opportunities available through DAFZ for UK businesses seeking to expand internationally.
