Alongside the Pods, Ru’ya 2025 also welcomes several major first-time exhibitors. Emirates
Flight Catering, Aldar Properties, Al Tayer Group, Dubai Academic Health Corporation, and

Adidas will spotlight structured graduate programmes, management trainee schemes, and on-
the-job training opportunities, reinforcing the event’s position as a critical platform for

Emiratisation.

Meshal Almarzooqi, AVP – National Talent & Government Affairs at Emirates Flight Catering,

said: “We firmly believe that Emirati talents have the potential to shape the future of our
industry. Over the past two years, we have recruited a significant number of UAE nationals into

our workforce and are proud of the robust retention rate that indicates long-term career
growth opportunities we provide them. At Ru’ya 2025, we aim to exhibit our expanding

Graduate Trainee, Management Trainee, and Apprenticeship programmes, along with the
remarkable success stories of Emirati talents who have progressed to leadership roles. We

continue to invest in structured development opportunities, strategic partnerships and
meaningful career pathways that enable Emiratis to drive the future of aviation and catering
services.”

With thousands of Emirati students, graduates, and professionals expected to attend, Ru’ya

2025 will showcase more than 180 exhibitors, alongside workshops, panels, and competitions
that prepare attendees with future-ready skills. The introduction of Pod exhibitors reflects

Ru’ya’s role in diversifying career access and supporting the UAE’s Emiratisation targets,
including 8% private sector participation by the end of 2025.

Ru’ya extends its sincere appreciation to its sponsors, including DP World, Platinum Sponsor;
Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB), Gold Sponsor; and Emirates National Oil Company (ENOC),

Silver Sponsor.
