How is Dubai positioning itself as a leader in advanced manufacturing and what are its goals for the future?

Dubai is cementing its position as a leader in advanced manufacturing through its Dubai Industrial City (DIC), home to pioneering facilities like Enviroserve’s e-waste recycling plant, Dubatt’s integrated battery recycling facility, and Unilever’s digitally advanced personal care plant. With the Dubai Industrial Strategy 2030, the emirate aims to add $43 billion to its economy by enhancing manufacturing and exports, focusing on next-gen technologies and clean energy. Initiatives like allowing manufacturers to install solar plants and creating a carbon credit trading framework are part of the broader vision to boost sustainability and eco-friendly exports. This aligns with the Dubai Economic Agenda ‘D33’, which aims to double the GDP by 2033, enhance logistics, and position Dubai as a top five global logistics hub, aiming to increase trade to $7 trillion.
