The meeting took place during Bin Touq’s official visit to several European countries, aimed at strengthening partnerships and

boosting cooperation in sectors such as the new economy, tourism, and advanced technology.

Bin Touq explained that the UAE continues to enhance its economic openness and diversify its global partnerships, including
those with emerging economies in Europe. He noted that the UAE and Croatia have a common vision for collaboration in

several key strategic sectors such as renewable energy, logistics, and creative industries, which presents opportunities for new
partnerships.

He emphasised that both countries have great economic potential that can be leveraged, particularly in the tourism sector,
which is one of the most promising industries in both economies. The sector provides valuable opportunities for exchanging
expertise and experiences that set the UAE and Croatia apart in the global tourism and travel landscape.

Bin Touq highlighted that the meeting is happening at a time when both countries are focused on cultivating a flexible and

attractive business environment for investment and fostering dialogue between their business communities. In this context, he
