Quarterly Meeting & Committee Updates

A strong evening of connection and member-led engagement at our Quarterly Meeting & Committee Updates at W Dubai – Mina Seyahi.

Mohamed Ali Eldabaa, Director of Programs, AmCham Dubai & the Northern Emirates, and Group Director – Global Government Relations and Public Policy, Gulf & Levant Markets at P&G, guided us through the evening, welcoming members and introducing our speakers and committee representatives.

We were pleased to welcome U.S. Consul General Robert Raines, who spoke about the importance of continued engagement with the American business community across Dubai and the Northern Emirates.

Consul General Raines highlighted his continued outreach across the Northern Emirates, including his recent visit to Umm Al Quwain, and the opportunities to encourage greater American business presence across the region. He reinforced the U.S. Consulate’s commitment to working alongside AmCham Dubai & the Northern Emirates to strengthen engagement and expand connections between American businesses and the Northern Emirates.
