Dubai International Chamber, one of the three chambers operating under the Dubai Chambers umbrella, has announced its key achievements for 2025, highlighting its role in supporting foreign direct investment inflows and reinforcing Dubai’s position as a global trade and investment hub.

The chamber attracted 373 companies to Dubai during the year, an 80.2 percent increase from 207 in 2024. This total included 64 multinational corporations, up from 51 the previous year, reflecting a 25.5 percent increase, alongside 309 small and medium-sized enterprises, up from 156 in 2024, marking a 98 percent increase.

Commenting on the results, Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem, Chairman of Dubai International Chamber, said Dubai continues to strengthen its position as a global destination for foreign direct investment, supported by the chamber’s expanding international network in line with the Dubai Economic Agenda, D33.

In 2025, the chamber organised and participated in 235 international roadshows across 190 cities and hosted 141 trade delegations with 673 participants. These efforts aimed to promote investment, expand cooperation, and create new business opportunities.

The chamber also continued to expand its international presence in line with the Dubai Global initiative, which aims to establish 50 representative offices worldwide by 2030 to attract foreign investment and support the international expansion of Dubai-based companies into priority markets.

Nine new representative offices were inaugurated in 2025, bringing the total to 38 by the end of the year. These included first-time offices in New York, Warsaw, and Stockholm, as well as new locations in Karachi, Dhaka, Cape Town, Bengaluru, Bangkok, and Toronto.

Throughout the year, the chamber’s international representative offices organised 505 roundtable discussions to promote Dubai as a global business destination, support foreign direct investment, and position the emirate as a platform for international expansion.
