CTW Global 2025, hosted by MIE Events DMCC, stands as a flagship platform fostering innovation, collaboration, and growth across global trade and services. Featuring an integrated summit, exhibition, interactive workshops, engaging seminars, and tailored B2B matchmaking, the event delivers unmatched opportunities for businesses to thrive.
Strategically positioned as a premier B2B/B2G hub, CTW Global 2025 connects national and international industry leaders, investors, and entrepreneurs. The event offers exclusive access to the burgeoning opportunities in global trade and services while aligning with the UAE’s visionary mega projects set to transform the economic landscape over the next two decades.
This year’s edition highlights cross-border opportunities across nine pivotal sectors, serving as a convergence point for thought leaders, industry experts, and innovators worldwide. Together, they will explore breakthrough ideas, forge strategic partnerships, and redefine the future of the global trade and services ecosystem.
The services sector in UAE has seen strong growth in recent years, as a result of the massive Government and private spendings and investments. In 2022, the UAE’s services exports stood at 739 billion dirhams, an increase of 11% from the previous year. Imports of services hit 456 billion dirhams, up 13% from 2021. This growth was mainly driven by the tourism, transport, finance and insurance sectors, which together accounted for nearly two-thirds of all services exports. The UAE also concluded a wide-ranging free trade agreement with India last year, which is expected to increase bilateral non-oil trade to $100 billion in the next five years.
At CTW Global Summit, there will be dynamic and thought-provoking program featuring a diverse array of service-related industries from various countries. The conference will showcase wide industry insights across a wide spectrum of sectors, including Logistics and Supply Chain, Special Economic Zones, Digital Commerce, Travel & Tourism, Banking & Finance, Arts & Culture, Sustainable Innovations, Technologies, and Entertainment.
