We are proud to have launched Fifty Years of Vision, a pocket book on Dubai in celebration of our 50th Anniversary. Dubai is a living example of commerce, innovation, momentum and vision – the four pillars that Dubai Chamber also believes and has worked towards upholding. Fifty Years of Vision tells the story of Dubai Chamber, keeping these four pillars as the common theme.

INTRODUCTION
Dubai has always been a vital and dynamic centre of trade. Before
the architectural marvels and cosmopolitan city of today, Dubai
was a small fishing town on the shores of the Gulf. It was known
for producing the most beautiful pearls, captured by the hardiest
and most skilled pearl divers.
When Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum established
Dubai Chamber in 1965, he had an idea in mind: that Dubai could
and should compete with the great cities of the world. To do this,
he knew a strong infrastructure would be essential. Despite chal-
lenges, the emirate has gone from strength to strength, accepting
nothing less than excellence in its achievements.
Commerce, innovation, momentum and vision are words that
might be said to characterize Dubai. These four words tie this
book together – a book that aims to give an outline of Dubai’s
story to date, and the way in which Dubai Chamber has con-
tributed to its success. Defined by innovation and the vision of
its leaders, Dubai has rapidly gained momentum and shows
no signs of surrendering its status as an international centre
of commerce.
For fifty years the work of Dubai Chamber has been to
empower business and open up opportunities for trade. However,
the importance of community and family are deeply ingrained
in the national psyche of the UAE and with this in mind, corpo-
rate social responsibility and sustainability are at the forefront of
everything Dubai Chamber does. Numerous initiatives and pro-
grammes ensure Dubai’s continued success as a centre of business
and prosperity, and as an ethical city. This book is a celebration
of Dubai Chamber’s fiftieth anniversary and of its success, along
with the outstanding success of the emirate.

When people talk about the
vision of Dubai’s leaders it
isn’t just a reference to city
planning, architecture, busi-
ness and political systems,
culture or community; but
rather all of these things.
Today Dubai stands as one of
the most cosmopolitan cities
on earth and it’s easy to forget
that just forty-three years ago,
there was almost nothing of
the metropolis we see today.
DUBAI’S SKYLINE IS ONE OF THE
TALLEST ON EARTH AND SERVES
AS A PHYSICAL REPRESENTATION
OF THE EMIRATE’S WILL TO
PUSH BOUNDARIES AND
BREAK RECORDS.

Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed
Al Maktoum was responsi-
ble for transforming Dubai
from a small fishing town
into an economic power-
house. He understood that
for Dubai to rely solely on
oil production would lead
to a monolithic economy
that would eventually fail.
With this in mind Dubai’s
leadership has worked
to diversify the emirate,
investing in trade, tour-
ism, financial and media
services, and technology.

Sustainability and longevity
are two essential aspects of
Dubai’s approach to busi-
ness and governance. This
approach is at the heart of
the Dubai Chamber Strategy.
This strategy consists of three
central pillars: International
markets, business intelligence
and a voice for business.
In accord with this strategy,
several initiatives have been
established to encourage
organizations to work
together for mutual benefit
and the greater success of
the emirate.
IN 2013, THE DUBAI CHAMBER
BUILDING WAS AWARDED THE
PLATINUM LEED (LEADERSHIP IN

The sense of continued
endeavour in Dubai, of an
enduring vision, is reflected
not just in policy and rhet-
oric, but also in the hearts
and minds of the people,
in the audacity of the pro-
jects undertaken, in the
very fabric of the emirate.
The words of His Highness
Sheikh Mohammed bin
Rashid Al Maktoum offer
an insight into the future of
the emirate: ‘Success is not a
destination, but a journey.
Each time that you reach
a summit on this jour-
ney, you must look ahead
to the next one.’ Such a
statement is character-
istic of a leadership that
embraces its heritage, but
always looks forward.

True visionaries will never
accept short-term successes
at the expense of the future.
A sustainable, resilient and
ethical business infrastruc-
ture is the essential goal of
Dubai Chamber. But like the
city itself and any centre of
growth, this infrastructure is
constantly developing, inno-
vating and looking for better
ways to do things. Dubai
Chamber has set up a number
of networks and endeavours
aimed at promoting equality,
responsibility and effective
business practices.

One of Dubai Chamber’s
initia­tives is its Centre for
Responsible Business. This
goes hand in hand with
the emirate’s objective to
develop the best practices for
a brighter and fairer future.
This initiative is aimed at pro-
moting and supporting the
development of corporate
social responsibility and sus-
tainability practices. It allows
members to connect and col-
laborate on specific issues
for greater synergy and bet-
ter governance, and to boost
the reputation of the business
community in Dubai.

Today, the world marvels
at the phenomenal achieve-
ments of Dubai. The emirate
is defined by the records it
has broken, for the bold-
ness of its creations and for
the speed with which it has
materialized.
The expansion and devel-
opment of Dubai, along with
the other emirates, has been
truly rapid, particularly as
the United Arab Emirates was
only established as a nation
in 1971. Today Dubai is home
to the tallest man-made struc-
ture on earth, the longest
driverless metro on earth and
the largest shopping mall in
the world.

Despite moving at breakneck
speed today, Dubai has built
momentum over time. In the
beginning it was marked only
by a vast expanse of desert
on the shores of the Gulf. Far
from shunning their origins,
the people of Dubai embrace
their heritage and their
national identity, proudly
maintaining their national
customs in the face of an ever-
changing world.

When Sheikh Rashid issued
a decree establishing Dubai
Chamber of Commerce and
Industry the decision proved
to be prudent. Sheikh Rashid
understood that to build a
city and an emirate meant
laying solid foundations and
creating an infrastructure
that could support a swift
and all-encompassing expan-
sion. Beginning in 1965 with
just 450 members, Dubai
Chamber represented over
170,000 businesses by the end
of 2014.

In the same year that Dubai
Chamber commenced
its operations, the Deira
Clocktower was built. It
stands in one of the commer-
cial powerhouses of Dubai,
close to Dubai Creek, the
home of old Dubai and its
flourishing trade. This clock-
tower remains a symbol of
Dubai and an instrument of
enduring relevance.

Time is always of the essence
in Dubai; as the emirate con-
tinues to move forward, it
aims ever higher with its
accomplishments. In 2020 the
World Expo will be hosted
here. This will be the first time
the Expo has been staged in
the Middle East, North Africa
and South Asia region. This
Expo will mark the UAE’s
Golden Jubilee celebration
and will focus on the themes
of mobility, sustainability and
opportunity for the future of
the UAE and the world.

With one of the world’s
fastest growing economies,
Dubai has gone from being
a largely oil-dependent emir-
ate, to establishing itself as
a diverse and formidable
point of trade, tourism and
construction. The ruler of
Dubai, His Highness Sheikh
Mohammed bin Rashid
Al Maktoum has been a pow-
erful force for progress in the
emirate, urging the people
of Dubai ever forward with
inspirational messages and
actions: ‘In the race for excel-
lence, there is no finish line’.

One initiative of Dubai
Chamber is Tejar Dubai, an
organization that seeks to
educate, develop and sup-
port young entrepreneurs.
Tejar Dubai’s Entrepreneurs
Development Programme
identifies and nurtures bud-
ding talent in the UAE,
ensuring that young entrepre-
neurs have the requisite skills

world. A strong education
system is essential for the
future of Dubai, and Dubai
Chamber has always been
a strong supporter of this,
establishing Dubai University
in 1997.
NUMEROUS SCHEMES AND
INITIATIVES HAVE BEEN
ESTABLISHED TO SUPPORT
ENTREPRENEURS IN THE UAE.

In 2012 the UAE government
made it compulsory for every
company and government
entity to include women on
their board of directors. This
historic measure continues
the tradition of embracing
greater diversity, which has
produced the strong, dynamic
commercial environment we
see today.
In 2002 Dubai Business
Women Council was estab-
lished by Dubai Chamber.
This council was created to
raise the profile of women in
business and to ensure the
strength of Dubai’s work-
force, but more than that, the
council has helped fight nega-
tive stereotypes of women in
the Arab world and works as
a catalyst for positive action.

The Mohammed bin Rashid
Al Maktoum Business Awards
were introduced by Dubai
Chamber in 2005 to promote
excellence in business. Open
to organizations throughout
the Gulf Cooperation Council
countries, this is widely con-
sidered one of the highest
honours a business in the
region can achieve. Focusing
on areas like leadership and
strategy, but also innovation
and corporate social respon-
sibility, the award recognizes
not just the most success-
ful businesses, but those who
have positively contributed to
the emirate.

International business net-
works and investment are
essential for the consolida-
tion of business in Dubai.
The emirate has always been
a trading post for the sur-
rounding region and now
more than ever, strong
links are being forged with
Europe, Asia, America and
particularly Africa – the
fastest-growing continent.
Trade missions from Dubai
Chamber target specific busi-
ness opportunities relevant
to its members, and provide
channels between govern-
ments and organizations.

ernment of the United Arab
Emirates approved the desig-
nation of 2015 as the Year of
Innovation. Such a statement
is bold and might be consid-
ered ambitious; but a cursory
glance at the history of the
emirates shows that ambition
and boldness are defining fea-
tures of the UAE and essential
elements of true innovation.

In 1955, Sheikh Rashid bin
Saeed Al Maktoum presided
over the development of
Dubai Creek. This proved to
be a pivotal moment in the
commercial development
of the emirate. Dredging
shallow areas, building
breakwaters and adapting
the beach to become a quay,
suitable for the loading and
unloading of cargo from
trading vessels, precipitated
Dubai’s boom as a port of call
for all major trading nations.

One of Dubai’s greatest
demonstrations of innova-
tion has been its management
of human capital. Over the
years, the UAE and Dubai
in particular have welcomed
expatriate professionals from
all over the globe, to work
hand in hand with the men
and women of the emirates.
This has led to a remarka-
bly rich and diverse society;
but quite aside from cultural
tolerance and progress, this
policy has empowered the
strategies and designs of
the Emirati people and their
rulers, with a wealth of expe-
rience and perspectives from
all over the world.

One of Dubai’s greatest
strengths is its commercial
freedom. The leaders of the
emirate have always under-
stood that for businesses
to truly succeed, they need
room to grow. In October
2014, it was announced that
Dubai would invest 4.5 billion
dirhams to make the emirate
an innovation centre for
international technology busi-
nesses and entrepreneurs.

The government’s efforts to
encourage small and medium
businesses, along with the
efforts of Dubai’s business
community, bodes well for
the future of the emirate and
those who would be part of
it. As His Highness Sheikh
Mohammed bin Rashid
Al Maktoum explained in an
address commemorating the
fifteenth anniversary of Dubai
Internet City:
‘The future will belong
to those who dare to take
new paths. Recently we
announced a national
vision and a strategic plan
on innovation, because
this is how we will unlock
added value for our nation.
Today we announce a new
bundle of initiatives that
will make us the innovation
capital for more than two
billion people who live in
the region around us.’
DUBAI INTERNET CITY WAS
CREATED BY THE GOVERNMENT
OF DUBAI AS AN ECONOMIC FREE
ZONE DESIGNED TO SUPPORT
AND ENCOURAGE INNOVATIVE
TECHNOLOGY BUSINESSES.
