Dubai Chambers has held talks with a Shanghai-based trade body to boost economic cooperation and support business growth between Dubai and China.
The meeting brought together H.E. Mohammad Ali Rashed Lootah, President and CEO of Dubai Chambers, and Yang Dongsheng, Vice Chairman of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) Shanghai.
Discussions focused on expanding cooperation across sectors with growth potential, with particular attention on the digital economy.
H.E. Mohammad Ali Rashed Lootah, President and CEO of Dubai Chambers, said: “Dubai and China share a dynamic economic partnership with significant scope to expand trade and investment ties, deepen collaboration, and drive mutual growth. We are committed to further strengthening cooperation between the business communities in both markets, supporting two-way investment flows, and exploring new opportunities across priority sectors.”
China was ranked seventh among the sources of new foreign companies joining the Dubai Chamber of Commerce in 2025.
A total of 1,583 Chinese companies joined during the year, marking a 7% increase compared to the previous year.
Dubai Chambers said it continues to support business expansion and international market access, while contributing to the development of the emirate’s digital economy. The organisation also works to represent business interests and strengthen Dubai’s position as a global business hub.
