Industry board member Sanad Al-Miqbali recently met at the chamber’s tower in
Abu Dhabi with an Indian trade delegation from Kerala chaired by Sri Pattabhiraman, president of Thrissur Chamber of Commerce.
More than 80 representatives from Abu Dhabi companies were
in attendance at the meeting, along with Abu Dhabi Chamber board members Reed Al-Dhaheri, Hamed Al-Shaer, Dalal
Al-Qubaisi, Mouzah Al-Otaiba, Yousef Ali and Khan Zaman attended the meeting along with Helal Al-Hameli, deputy director general of the Abu Dhabi Chamber.
“Economic and investment cooperation relations between the
two sides witnessed considerable development over the past few years until it
became a distinguished attraction for Emirati investments in a number of
pivotal sectors including the energy sector, construction, services,
programming, property development, shipping, jewelry, banking, tourism,
telecommunications, marine operations and ports,” Al-Miqbali said.
Al-Miqbali offered a warm greeting to the Indian
delegation from Thrissur Chamber, highlighting that the visit was
a great opportunity for the businessmen of Abu Dhabi to work with Indian
businessmen from the Kerala state to build partnerships between the companies
and strengthen the methods of increasing trade and bettering both economies.
It was noted that India is at the top of the list when it
comes to exporting countries to the UAE and Abu Dhabi.
“The volume of Emirati investments in India grew
tremendously over the past five years; besides, the number of Emirati companies
doubled their presence in the Indian markets, especially in such sectors,” Al-Miqbali said.
