Welcome to the Business Breakfast which will cover the new law of 100% Ownership and National In-Country Value Program (ICV) and which is organised jointly with MBG Corporate Services and the Nordic Business Councils. The event will take place at the new Dubai Exhibition Centre, right by Expo 2020 Dubai.
A big change for the entrepreneurial community and foreign investors is the new 100% Ownership Law of onshore companies. In Dubai and Abu Dhabi there are more than 2,100 commercial activities covering trading and industrial commercial activities which allows a huge mainstream of business scope to be 100% owned.
The other game-changer was on the 11th September, The Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) signed three separate memoranda of understanding (MoU) with Etisalat, Emirates Steel and TAQA, the Abu Dhabi National Energy Company, as the first three large national companies joining to mark their commitment to the ICV Program.
One way of strengthening one’s relationship with the UAE’s private sector and to encourage suppliers of goods and services to include higher Emirates content is the ICV Program. Any legal entity can take part in tenders with any of the participating entities (ADNOC, Aldar, Abu Dhabi Ports, ADDED, Mubadala, ENEC). Could the ICV Program be the answer?
So, what does this mean to you and your company? Attend our business breakfast to find out more.
