Dubai Chamber organizes business meeting with Belgian delegation

The Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry recently organized a business meeting with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Antwerpen-Waasland, Belgium.  

In attendance at the meeting were Chairman Majid Al Ghurair and board members of Dubai Chamber, including Raja Al Gurg, Dubai Chamber board member; Sofi Saleh, president of Dubai Business Women Council; and Easa Al Bastaki, president of University of Dubai.
 
“Last year, we organized the UAE-Belgium forum in Dubai as part of an economic mission led by Princess Astrid and a delegation of ministers as we fostered stronger cooperation and encouraged two-way investment across key sectors, including trade and tourism and also signed two important agreements with chambers of commerce to enhance bilateral trade and to explore joint ventures,” Al Ghurair said.
 
Additionally, Al Ghurair noted the fact that Belgium is Dubai’s 11th largest trading partner. Both sides enjoy strong positions in global business. Together, they can develop new economic growth.
 
“With your visit today, we hope to build on these efforts and pave the way for increased collaboration and new economic growth as Belgium is Dubai’s 11th largest trading partner -- and both sides enjoy strategic geographic position, a supportive environment for businesses and investors, as well as thriving economies supported by global trade,” he said.
