The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Ministry of Economy has announced
that the UAE recently participated in the 2016 Global Investors Summit in
India.
The event was important economically to the UAE because
India is the country’s largest trading partner. In
2015, total non-oil bilateral foreign trade between the two nations amounted to
$34 billion. India was the top importer for the UAE in 2015, and the third
largest exporter and second largest re-exporter.
The UAE delegation was led by Abdullah Al Saleh, undersecretary
for foreign trade and industry at the UAE Ministry of Economy.
Other members
included Mohammed Alzaabi, director of the ministry’s Trade
Promotion and Investment Department; Mana Al Mulla, CEO of
Kizad; Aydah Khouri, director of international economic promotion, Abu Dhabi
Department of Economic Development; Sharief Al Awadhi, director general
of the Fujairah Free Zone Authority; Jamal Al Jarwan, secretary general of
the UAE International Investors Council; Fatema Hadroom, board member of the
RAK Chamber; and Muneera Al Marzooqi, commercial director for National Feed and
Flour Production and Marketing and others.
