Last week, ABC Chairman & Gates Hospitality CEO Dr. Naim Maadad joined an exclusive assembly of 100 senior leaders spanning government, tourism, aviation, hospitality, real estate, technology, and global investment.
As part of the Global Tourism Forum’s international initiative connecting high-level political leadership with private-market operators, this gathering reinforced Dubai’s position as a premier global hub where cross-border vision translates into tangible action.
Particularly with CEPA nearly a year into effect, the ABC firmly believes that cross-industry engagement at this level is essential to building enduring value and driving bilateral opportunities across the region and beyond.
A sincere thank you to Bulut Bağcı, Richard Haddad, and the World Tourism Forum Institute for curating such a high-caliber, forward-thinking evening.
