Tamimi Consulting had opened its fifth global office in Istanbul, Türkiye, early 2022 as a result of deepening relations between UAE and Türkiye and identified business opportunities to offer their services at the doorstep of the esteemed Turkish investors. It was the right time to have a strong physical presence, a footprint in Türkiye, one the leading economies of the world.

Founder and CEO of Tamimi Consulting, Tarik Tamimi advised that there is a significant increase in demand from Turkish investors, brands and companies to explore the business opportunities of UAE as a regional hub in the Middle East. Türkiye has a great potential with respect to entrepreneurs and start-ups across all industries especially strategic sectors such as healthcare, renewable energy, information technologies, food security, transportation, infrastructure, tourism, and hospitality and they are all eager to position themselves in the UAE to benefit from the world class facilities and the great synergy created by the leaders of both countries.

Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) between the UAE and Türkiye in March 2023 has come into effect as of September 1, 2023, which is expected to significantly contribute to the growth of both economies and create more business opportunities. Currently, Türkiye is UAE’s fifth largest trading partner in the world (it was sixth as of 2022) and expected to become the fourth largest trading partner by 2024.
