H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, emphasised that Foreign Direct Investment flows into Dubai in 2019 continued to grow remarkably, making the emirate one of the top three global FDI locations. This achievement has been made possible by the vision and leadership of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, His Highness said. Sheikh Hamdan added that such an achievement reflects the confidence of the local and global investor community in Dubai's strategic plans and vision for the future. 

In this context, His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed has issued directives to hold the fifth edition of Dubai Investment Week from 29 September to 3 October 2019, under the theme 'Investing in the City of the Future’. 

He said the week-long programme of events will showcase how Dubai has transformed the challenges of future cities into opportunities for growth, partnership and innovation to cope with the needs of the present and lead the world as the smart and sustainable city of the future. 

"The Dubai leadership’s push in adopting the Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies and creating regulatory frameworks for new business models have further developed Dubai’s investment environment and opportunities as well as its human capital, and hard and digital infrastructure advantages," said His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed. "Today, Dubai is a preferred global FDI destination in the fields of artificial intelligence and robotics," he added.

"Despite regional and global economic challenges, FDI inflows into Dubai in recent years, have been sustainable and growing. Today, Dubai is one of the top three global FDI locations, which reflects investors’ confidence in the Emirate’s investment ecosystem and its strategic advantage as the city of the future, the gateway for regional growth markets and global business hub," he concluded.
