The 50-year partnership between Canada and the UAE stands as a testament to the power of strategic collaboration in fostering sustainable growth, innovation, and global impact. Over the decades, Canada has emerged as a leader in clean energy, technology, and resilient healthcare, while the UAE has established itself as a global hub for business, finance, and digital transformation. Together, these strengths form a bridge across continents, promoting shared progress and addressing global challenges. The Canadian Business Council (CBC) Dubai, in collaboration with Canadian sister councils, continues to play a vital role in strengthening this enduring relationship. By fostering connections, advancing key industries, and supporting Canadian and Emirati businesses, CBC Dubai amplifies the shared commitment to innovation and sustainability. The recent Canada-UAE Business Summit celebrated this milestone and set the stage for the next chapter of this dynamic partnership. From advancing clean energy technologies to exploring opportunities in AI, finance, and healthcare, the summit highlighted the transformative potential of collaboration. As we look ahead, the efforts of CBC Dubai and its partners will remain instrumental in ensuring the Canada-UAE relationship thrives for decades to come, shaping a sustainable and prosperous future together.

Shaping Dubai’s Future: Insights from the Dubai Chamber Breakfast Briefing at The Big 5 As part of our ongoing commitment to keeping our members informed and engaged, CBC Dubai was present at the Dubai Chamber Breakfast Briefing during The Big 5. Here are some key insights that are shaping the future of Dubai’s economy and construction industry: 1️⃣ Dubai’s Economic Diversity With 97% of its economy non-oil related, Dubai continues to lead in sectors like real estate (14.4%), manufacturing (8.2%), and finance (12.2%). Its economic resilience and global engagement set a strong foundation for sustained growth. 2️⃣ Opportunities in Construction The AED 12.6 billion construction materials market highlights the industry’s growth. While it’s the largest contributor to waste, it’s also a key area for sustainable practices and innovation—opportunities that align with Dubai’s ambitious vision. 3️⃣ Mega-Projects Driving Innovation Dubai’s AED 107 billion investment in urban development is transforming the city’s landscape with human-centric communities. These projects not only attract global businesses but also redefine urban living. 4️⃣ Thriving Luxury Real Estate The luxury real estate sector is booming, with creative developments like Wasl Tower setting new benchmarks in sustainability and design. This growth highlights Dubai’s appeal as a global hub for innovation and excellence. 5️⃣ AI Transforming Construction AI’s ability to drive efficiencies and boost business growth was a key focus. With AI projected to add $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030, Dubai is at the forefront with an AI-focused workshop on November 29th, exploring its potential in the construction sector. At CBC Dubai, we’re here to ensure our members stay updated on the trends and opportunities shaping the industries they operate in. We’re excited to see how these developments will unfold and what they mean for Canadian businesses in Dubai. Let us know your thoughts—what opportunities do you see in sustainability, AI, and luxury real estate? Let’s connect and keep the conversation going!
