Why UAE? Why Now?
The UAE has rapidly positioned itself as one of the world’s most strategic commercial hubs. In 2026, it offers a rare combination of:
- A competitive and transparent corporate tax framework
- A stable and pro-business regulatory environment
- Direct access to the GCC, Africa, India and South Asia
- Strong global banking infrastructure
- Political stability in a shifting global landscape
- Continued government investment in infrastructure and innovation
For founder-led companies seeking geographic diversification and regional expansion, the UAE is no longer a future consideration — it is an active strategic business expansion.
However, entering correctly requires structure, planning and clarity.
Who Should Attend
This event is suitable for:
- Owners directly responsible for expansion decisions
- Founder-led companies generating $10M+ in annual revenue
- Companies from all industries such as healthcare, logistics, manufacturing, trading, professional services and development to name a few.
- Businesses exploring entry into the Middle East.
