The United Arab Emirates has made remarkable strides in industrial development, establishing itself as a competitive force on the global stage. Through a steadfast commitment to innovation, quality, and strategic collaboration, the UAE continues to solidify its position as a global centre for future-oriented manufacturing.
The recent edition of the “Make it in the Emirates” Forum, the largest to date, underscored the nation’s industrial ambitions.
Bringing together over 700 companies across 12 key sectors, the event served as a strategic meeting point for global manufacturers, investors, entrepreneurs, and industry experts.
This convergence created a dynamic space to explore partnerships, supply chain opportunities, and emerging technologies—further accelerating local industrial growth and reinforcing the UAE’s global industrial stature.
Held under the visionary leadership of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and supported by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister, and Ruler of Dubai, along with the dedicated oversight of His Highness Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister, and Chairman of the Presidential Court, the UAE has laid robust foundations for an advanced, innovation-driven industrial economy.
The forum has emerged as a national initiative that exemplifies the country’s resolve to achieve industrial breakthroughs. Each year, it reaffirms the UAE’s leadership in shaping the economic future of the region and the world.
Today, the UAE’s industrial sector is no longer a vision on the horizon—it is a tangible reality. It plays a central role in driving national development, enhancing global competitiveness, and diversifying the economy. Emirati-made products have gained the trust of international markets, admired for their high quality and adherence to global standards.
The nation’s experience has also demonstrated that industrial security is a cornerstone of comprehensive national security. Building independent production capabilities and advanced local supply chains has empowered the UAE to elevate its economy, improve resilience, and ensure stability across vital sectors.
