According to the Indian Ministry of External Affairs, the first 'strategic dialogue' between the two countries - who had earlier decided to elevate their relations to a 'comprehensive strategic partnership' - saw large delegations from ministries and government departments of the two countries interact in Delhi this week.
The two governments will be focusing on key trade and investment issues in areas including energy security and renewable energy, defence and security, electronics, information technology
and space.
The two sides will also be signing several memoranda of understanding (MoUs) during the high-level UAE visit to India. They cover areas including infrastructure, maritime transport, maritime training, agriculture and SMEs and innovation.
India's Ministry of Road Transport and Highways aims to increase cooperation with UAE's Federal Transport Authority for land and marine systems. The agreements also cover marine transport and training.
In agriculture, the two countries aim to promote best practices to improve farm productivity and agricultural technology to ultimately strengthen food security.
The MoU on SMEs and innovation is expected to help small enterprises in both countries to explore the two markets and enhance their business.
India and the UAE have had historical trade and business ties dating back to the previous century. Recent years have seen a dramatic increase in the relationship as businesses from both countries have ventured out and established ties.
A large number of Indians, estimated to be over 2.5 million, are working in the UAE and remitting funds home every month. They provide skills and manpower in virtually all sectors of the UAE economy. With the huge demand for funds in India to build and develop new infrastructure, companies, trusts and affluent individuals in the UAE are investing significant amounts in India. Last year, estimates showed that they invested almost $10 billion into India.
The growing ties between the two countries have also led to a significant increase in air connectivity. More than 1,000 flights operate between the two nations on a weekly basis, linking dozens of cities in India with the major airports in the UAE.
Analysts expect trade relations between the two countries to surge over the coming years as the two nations cement their economic ties.
