Dubai has a well-established reputation as a top travel destination, as evidenced by its high visitor numbers and acknowledgment from awards like the Tripadvisor Travellers Choice Awards, which rank it as the top global destination. A major contributor to economic growth and diversification, Dubai has become a global leader in the strategic planning and execution of corporate events in addition to leisure travel.
The international business events sector is a potent engine of economic growth. According to studies, it supports millions of employment and adds an astounding $1.6 trillion yearly to the global GDP. Realizing this potential, the city has worked to establish itself as the premier location for international business gatherings under the visionary leadership of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the UAE’s vice president and prime minister and ruler of Dubai. Dubai’s cooperation with groups like the International Congress & Convention Association (ICCA), which dates back to 2003, demonstrates this dedication.
