Strong results from a variety of important industries propelled the rise seen in Q1 2025. Activities related to social work and human health saw the largest increase rate, increasing by 26% over the same time previous year.
The robust performance in 2024, when Dubai’s economy grew by 5.8% at current prices to reach Dhs541 billion and by 3.2% at constant prices to reach Dhs443 billion, is continued by the GDP growth in the first quarter of this year.
