She said: “Sharjah’s future depends on our ability to thoughtfully integrate

innovation with sustainability, ensuring our heritage informs our progress, rather

than limits it. The Ramadan Majlis symbolises this commitment, serving as a
dynamic space for dialogue where we collectively explore pathways to inclusive

growth. Each partnership formed and each idea shared moves us closer to a

future that honours our values, supports entrepreneurs, and creates lasting

economic resilience for generations to come.”

This year’s Majlis was organised by Sharjah Investment and Development

Authority (Shurooq), Sharjah FDI Office (Invest in Sharjah),

the Sharjah Entrepreneurship Center (Sheraa), and

the Sharjah Research, Technology, and Innovation Park (SRTI Park). This high-
profile gathering brought together an impressive array of

senior government officials from the UAE’s Ministry of Economy (MoE), Ministry

of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) and Sharjah’s Economic Integration

Committee; as well as leaders and experts from diverse sectors including

investment, tourism, manufacturing, technology, and entrepreneurship.

The Majlis also included the signing of three Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs)

between Invest in Sharjah and SRTI Park, Sheraa and Emirates General

Petroleum Corporation (Emarat), and between Invest in Sharjah and Alef Group

aimed at enhancing innovation and the entrepreneurship ecosystem as well as
opportunities in the emirate’s property sector respectively.

The main focus of the Ramadan Majlis was on devising strategies to enhance the

manufacturing sector by examining opportunities and challenges through an open

discussion with leading figures. These efforts, while spotlighting exemplary models
and success stories, reinforce Sharjah’s expanding influence within the regional

and global industrial arena, and the emirate currently accounts for 35% of

the UAE's total industrial output, underscoring its status in driving national

industrial growth and competitiveness.

Dr. Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi, UAE Minister of State for Foreign Trade

discussed the significant economic status the UAE has achieved globally,
