The UAE’s remarkable transformation since 1971 is a testament to the visionary leadership of its founding fathers, who prioritised economic diversification and development. Leaders like the late Shaikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan and the late Shaikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum turned oil revenues into investments in infrastructure, trade, and logistics, laying the foundation for sustainable growth. Today, the UAE’s focus on innovation and diversification positions it as a model for economic resilience and a competitive global player across multiple industries.
