The two-day event aims to enhance economic and trade relations between the UAE and Kuwait, opening new opportunities for collaboration in key sectors.

Jointly organized by the UAE Ministry of Economy, Dubai Chambers, the Kuwaiti Consulate General, and Dubai Culture & Arts Authority, the event will serve as a platform for businesses, policymakers, and industry leaders to explore investments and strengthen trade ties. Dr. Thani Al Zeyoudi, Minister of State for Foreign Trade, emphasized the importance of this event in advancing strategic partnerships, particularly in energy, logistics, food security, and advanced industries.
