Abu Dhabi

Middle East

Abu Dhabi is the largest emirate in the United Arab Emirates, occupying 84 per cent of the national landmass territory, and it is the second most populous city in the UAE. Abu Dhabi is at the country’s centre for political and industrial activities.

Due to the vision of Abu Dhabi’s leaders and the abundance of oil and natural gas reserves, the emirate of Abu Dhabi has undergone a significant transformation in economic growth and has become a well renowned financial centre, making it a major competitor on the global stage.
