Mission Statement}

To be the leading commercial, residential, exhibition & convention centre in the Middle East and adjacent regions, complementing the Dubai government’s initiatives and benefiting the local community through a dedicated team exceeding customer expectations.

History

The Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) was built by H.H. Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and ruler of Dubai. DWTC is considered one of Dubai's premier landmark properties and business locations. Today, the complex comprises the original 39-storey office tower, eight exhibition halls, the Dubai International Convention Centre, which can accommodate more than 6,500 delegates in its multipurpose hall when set in auditorium style, a business club, and residential apartments with a leisure club.

The Dubai World Trade Centre has been at the forefront of exhibition organising in the Middle East for more than 20 years. The professional expertise of the DWTC has guaranteed the success of all exhibitions organized by DWTC, in addition to international exhibitions featuring health, oil & gas, food, construction, interior design, fashion, consumer electronics, education and motor vehicles.

Services

Recognizing the importance of an effective marketing tool to promote its exhibitions, the Dubai World Trade Centre has developed and maintained the biggest and most comprehensive database in the region. DWTC staff work daily on updating all information held on this database. The database can be sorted by business sector, gender, nationality, title or simply by country.
The success of the exhibition business at the Dubai World Trade Centre greatly contributes to the success of Dubai in establishing its reputation as the business hub of the Middle East and the neighboring countries. The Dubai World Trade Centre exhibitions offer not only a window to the Gulf but also access to the vast and lucrative markets of the CIS countries and the Indian Subcontinent. Another major factor behind this resounding success is the ability of the DWTC management to respond to specific market needs by creating new exhibitions that cover all the trade fields in the Middle East where face-to-face contact is the major key for business success.

Through the exhibitions and conferences that it organized and hosted in the past few years, the DWTC has supported the role of Dubai as a commercial and cultural meeting point. The DWTC has been directly involved in introducing international companies and institutions to the Middle East markets and to the local cultures, as well as providing an ideal business atmosphere for Gulf and regional companies to promote their products and services to the Middle East and the world.

In addition to the exhibition business, the Dubai World Trade Centre operates, leased space for offices within 33 of its 39 storey tower, the Conference Facilities, the Dubai World Trade Centre Furnished Apartments, the Executive Serviced Offices and the Arabic language Centre.
