ADCCI launches Roadmap 2025-2027 to foster innovation and entrepreneurship in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi: To support a thriving, adaptable, and diverse business environment that encourages innovation and entrepreneurship in Abu Dhabi, the Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ADCCI) unveiled its Roadmap 2025–2027.

The strategy, which was unveiled during Abu Dhabi Business Week 2024 (ADBW 2024), demonstrates the chamber’s dedication to enhancing its standing as the private sector’s voice.

Its main objectives are to build alliances, link companies to international markets, open up new business prospects, promote laws that will help them, and empower talented people and entrepreneurs.

ADCCI’s role in promoting economic diversification, fostering cross-border relationships, and establishing a vibrant business climate for its members is intended to be supported by the new strategy. It will enable businesses located in Abu Dhabi to expand steadily, strengthening their competitive advantage and bolstering the future prosperity of Abu Dhabi.

In line with Abu Dhabi’s bold goals to hasten the shift to a smart, diverse, and sustainable economy, the plan sets the stage for a new era of improved operations and performance.

ADCCI also launched its new brand identity at ADBW 2024, indicating a strong future vision and a strategic advancement phase. The chamber’s progress and dedication to providing outstanding value to its members are reflected in the rebranding, which is based on a north star that guides, empowers, and transforms the business community.

Ahmed Jasim Al Zaabi, Chairman of the ADCCI, said, “Our new roadmap is a result of discussions between key stakeholders in the public and private sectors over the past few months to provide a roadmap, prioritize the ease of doing business, accelerate growth in key sectors, and empower SMEs and family businesses to prosper in regional and global markets.”

“The plan lays out the foundations required to establish a sustainable business climate that takes into account significant changes and developments in the global economy and boosts our booming falcon economy. Abu Dhabi’s position as a growing economic powerhouse and a worldwide draw for people, companies, and investments is further cemented by the Abu Dhabi Chamber’s reaffirmation of its dedication to being a reliable partner and catalyst for sustainable progress,” he said.
For the next three years, the new roadmap functions as a thorough plan driven by an aspirational goal to keep expanding on ADCCI’s accomplishments and strengthen the emirate’s economy.

The ADCCI plan presents a number of projects and creative goals aimed at promoting sustainable development in Abu Dhabi and accelerating the growth of new industries.

Each of the five fundamental pillars that support the chamber’s new plan for economic excellence is essential to fostering innovation, sustainability, and resilience. Policy advocacy is at the forefront of the roadmap, acting as a conduit between legislators and the corporate sector. This strategy guarantees that business opinions are included in Abu Dhabi’s economic plans, fostering an atmosphere in which companies develop and make significant contributions to the emirate’s wealth. This is complemented by market intelligence, which gives companies the vital information and analytics they need to successfully negotiate a world that is becoming more and more competitive and enables well-informed decision-making.

Through their integration into the larger economic value chain, the third pillar, Ecosystem Building, enables prosperous local firms. By fostering cooperation and strengthening corporate networks, this program creates the groundwork for a thriving, globally integrated economy. With the Innovation Agenda tackling revolutionary global changes like digital transformation and sustainability, innovation continues to be a key component of this goal. Abu Dhabi is establishing itself as a pioneer in digital and sustainable economies by embracing these shifts and making sure companies are prepared for the future.

Lastly, market expansion aims to improve competitiveness, open up foreign markets, and ease cross-border commerce. By strengthening its position as a worldwide economic, financial, and investment center, this pillar enhances Abu Dhabi’s function as a gateway to international trade.

The five pillars work together to create a coherent road map that supports Abu Dhabi’s goal of creating a successful future characterized by creativity, cooperation, and adaptability.
