The Dubai International Chamber, part of the three chambers under Dubai Chambers, has showcased impressive results in 2025, reinforcing its commitment to fostering foreign investment and bolstering Dubai’s status as an international trade and business center.
During 2025, the chamber welcomed 373 companies into Dubai, consisting of multinational corporations (MNCs) and small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), signifying an 80.2% surge compared to 2024. This influx included 64 MNCs (a rise of 25.5% from 51 in 2024) and 309 SMEs (an increase of 98% from 156 in 2024).
Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, Chairman of Dubai International Chamber, stated,
"Dubai continues to be a premier destination for foreign investments, providing optimal conditions for business development. Our global network aligns with the Dubai Economic Agenda (D33) by linking enterprises with worldwide opportunities and promoting sustainable economic collaborations."
To further international relations, the chamber conducted 235 global roadshows in 190 cities throughout 2025, positioning Dubai as an enticing investment hotspot. It also hosted 141 trade delegations with 673 participants from various sectors to encourage partnerships and generate premium business opportunities.
Additionally, the chamber broadened its global footprint under the Dubai Global initiative, planning to establish 50 international offices by 2030. In 2025, nine new representative offices were inaugurated, bringing the total to 38 across the globe. New locations included New York (USA), Warsaw (Poland), Stockholm (Sweden), Karachi (Pakistan), Dhaka (Bangladesh), Cape Town (South Africa), Bengaluru (India), Bangkok (Thailand), and Toronto (Canada).
These offices hosted 505 roundtable discussions in 2025, linking Dubai-based firms with foreign markets, facilitating capital flows, and encouraging international growth.
