“The United Arab Emirates is an important ally of the UK and has been an impressive host and participant in recent joint exercises. The presence of Royal Air Force Typhoons reflects the important relationship between the UK and the UAE a relationship we very much value,” said Gerald Howarth
Richard Paniguian Head UKTI DSO said “We are here to encourage UK and Emirati companies to network and to identify areas of joint industrial and technological cooperation. The UK has a significant range of world class products across the air, land, maritime and security sectors and UK Industry is keen to establish enduring and mutually beneficial partnerships with the very capable industrial and technological base in the UAE. The UK wishes to be a key partner in the Abu Dhabi vision for 2030”.
