“A key pillar of the UAE’s economy, our tourism sector continues to maintain its growth momentum, backed by strong visitor inflows,” His Highness Hamdan bin Mohammed says. “Dubai remains dedicated to diversifying its tourism offerings and creating unique new experiences for travelers.”
“Our rich tradition of hospitality continues to make the city a prime destination for visitors from around the world,” he added.
His Highness also said that the event could help strengthen Dubai’s position in the tourism industry as well as in its rankings in the global economy.
“This global event offers the ideal platform for forging new partnerships that can accelerate our goal to establish Dubai as one of the world’s top three urban economies and strengthen its stature as a leading global tourist hub,” His Highness said.
