ABU DHABI, 29th October, 2024 (WAM) -- Dr. Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi, Minister of State for
Foreign Trade, led the inaugural Virtual Global Trade Regulators Roundtable as part of the joint
UAE-World Economic Forum (WEF) TradeTech Initiative. The event, organised by the UAE

Ministry of Economy, convened trade regulators from major global economies to explore and
discuss regulatory frameworks required to oversee the accelerating adoption of advanced
technologies in global trade.

The roundtable offered an interactive platform for trade officials and regulatory leaders to engage in
critical discussions on the evolving role and potential of technology, focusing on areas such as

regulatory innovations for cross-border digital trade, public-private partnerships to address
cybersecurity challenges, and leveraging regulatory sandboxes to pilot emerging trade technologies.
