His Excellency Dr. Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi, UAE Minister of State for Foreign Trade, participated in a panel
discussion titled 'Redefining Industry, Trade, and Investment' as part of the opening ceremony at the 'Make It In
The Emirates' event, where he reaffirmed the UAE's commitment to advancing its industrial sector and boosting
local production through strategic initiatives and global partnerships.

The 'Make It In The Emirates' event has emerged as a vital platform for manufacturers, investors, and industry
leaders, focusing on the UAE's industrial and manufacturing opportunities. The event emphasizes the nation's
economic diversification, technological innovation, and sustainability, helping to drive export-led growth.

The strong growth of the UAE's goods export economy was highlighted in a recent report from the World Trade
Organization, entitled 'Global Trade Outlook and Statistics'. That WTO report showed the UAE now ranks 11th
globally in goods exports, with a value of US$603 billion in 2024. The nation rose six places in these rankings
between 2021 and 2024, highlighting the effective nature of the UAE's industrial policy.
