Business groups

There are a number of business groups in Dubai most of which cater for people moving from a specific country. These groups are active and host member’s evenings and networking events. They also host social events. Membership fees are not excessive.

Business groups can be extremely helpful with your transition to the UAE and have particular expertise in assisting businesses setting up.

Most of these Business councils promote trade and exports from their home country. They regularly host trade delegations from their host country and it may benefit your business to be part of this as they tend to be high profile with direct access to the UAE Government.

They are not however relocation companies, and do not profess to be.
