Development (ADDED), Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development (KFED),
Department of Economy and Tourism in Dubai, Dubai Airport Freezone (DAFZ),
Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCI), Ajman Economic Development
Department, Ras Al Khaimah Economic Zones (RAKEZ), and Fujairah Department of

(EDB), Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank (ADCB), First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), Dubai
Commercial Bank (CBD), Ajman Bank, The National Bank of Ras Al Khaimah
