The Secretary-General of the Executive Council of Dubai, today stressed that Dubai is focused on its efforts to take a leadership position across a number of key strategic sectors by strengthening its partnerships with international cities.
This came off the back of a meeting with a high-ranking delegation from Shenzhen City, China, headed by Deputy Secretary of Communist Party of China, CPC, Guangdong Provincial Committee and Secretary of CPC Shenzhen Municipal Committee.
The delegation is currently on an official two-day visit to Dubai to learn about the Dubai Government’s achievements in key sectors like technology, trade, finance, manufacturing and SMEs, as part of the joint cooperation agreement signed by the two cities last December.
Dubai’s efforts to establish productive partnerships with the world’s leading cities and adopt international best practice to help Dubai enhance its position as an attractive hub for investment.
Shenzhen is a microcosm and reflection of the major strides China has made following the implementation of its ‘opening doors to other countries’ policy.
Shenzhen is considered a market leader across three key sectors: high-tech equipment manufacturing, logistics and distributions and finance, in addition to being the largest producer of computer hardware and telecommunication devices in China.
The visit opens doors for both cities to expand cooperation in other sectors to include advanced technology, artificial intelligence, logistics, and trade – all of which are currently the key drivers of global economic growth.
