Representatives of both Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in India and Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry attended the ceremony in support of DMCC.

“As we deepen our already strong partnership with the business community in India, DMCC takes pride in collaborating with WBIDC, and the state of West Bengal, to seek new ways to attract, facilitate and promote trade. As a result of our relationship with WBIDC, the initiatives outlined in this MoU serve as a launch pad for Indian businesses looking to grow in Dubai and beyond,” said Feryal Ahmadi, Chief Operating Officer, DMCC.

“India is the UAE’s second largest trading partner by volume.

By signing this MoU, we are delighted that DMCC and State of Bengal are clearly embracing this approach and one that will only serve to benefit both countries,” said Ahmad Alfalahi, Commercial Attache for the UAE Embassy - India.
