U.S. Export Council Trade and Investment Mission to U.A.E.
Over three years, the Annual World CEO Forum has grown and become an
important event to meet with principals, network, and establish
business contacts in the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.) and other
lucrative centers of the Middle East. The fourth edition of this
event takes place at the Jumeirah Beach Congress Center in Dubai,
U.A.E. March 17-19, 2009. U.S. businesses that join the mission
will receive fully customized, one-on-one appointments with potential
buyers, distributors, representatives, and business partners in both
Dubai and Abu Dhabi. These individual meetings are arranged by
Tejari, a company founded by the Government of Dubai and Dubai
World. Tejari is the largest online buyer network in the Middle
East.
In the first nine months of 2008, U.S. exports to the U.A.E. were up 37
percent compared to the same period in 2007. The U.A.E. was the
fastest growing market among the United States' top 20 export
markets. Wisconsin ranks #13 among the 50 states in exports to
the U.A.E. and shipped $204 million worth of products there in 2007.
