The Dubai Chamber of Commerce has announced the launch of the Slovak Business Council, aiming to strengthen trade and investment ties between Dubai and Slovakia.
The move highlights Dubai’s growing appeal as a hub for Slovakian businesses and investors.
The council was officially inaugurated during its first annual general meeting held at Dubai Chambers’ headquarters. Business leaders from both sides discussed strategies to deepen cooperation, explore new opportunities, and organise bilateral events to drive economic collaboration.
The establishment of the Slovak Business Council comes as trade between Dubai and Slovakia continues to grow. Non-oil trade reached AED3.4 billion in 2024, a 38% jump compared to the previous year. Membership growth also reflects the rising momentum, with 10 new Slovakian companies joining the chamber in the first quarter of 2025, pushing the total to 134—a 41% increase year-on-year.
Maha Al Gargawi, Vice President of Business Advocacy at Dubai Chambers, described the council as a key platform for unlocking new partnerships and boosting bilateral trade and investments.
Business Councils under the Dubai Chamber of Commerce play a vital role in representing the interests of foreign companies operating in Dubai, working to build stronger economic ties between Dubai and various international markets.
