strategy and youth empowerment agenda. The show aligns with national policy targets, including 8%

Emiratisation in the private sector by the end of 2025 and the 125,000 Nationals already working in the

private sector as of June this year.

In 2024, Ru’ya hosted 150 exhibitors and facilitated 7,000 on-site interviews, underlining its role as a

cornerstone of the UAE’s workforce development.

This year, visitors will connect with leading employers such as DEWA, RTA, HQ Police, ADCB,

Amazon, PwC, Emirates, and Majid Al Futtaim. The event also works in close partnership with
