ΣΧΟΛΙΟ ΙΣΤΟΛΟΓΙΟΥ : Tα σοβαρά κράτη , έτσι κάνουν σοβαρές δουλειές και μπίζνες. Εμείς μέχρι πρόσφατα ακόμα συζητούσαμε για οικονομικούς ακόλουθους στις ελληνικές πρεσβείες και στα προξενεία. Πεταμένα λεφτά.
The newly opened Tel Aviv branch of the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) held its official launch event Monday, with hundreds of business leaders, entrepreneurs and heads of investment funds from both markets in attendance. The event, which introduced Israeli businesses to the opportunities available in the UAE capital, Abu Dhabi, officially kicked off ADIO Israel’s presence in the market and its mission to attract and support companies to integrate them into Abu Dhabi’s innovation and startup ecosystem.
Prior
to the launch event, ADIO Israel held a series of virtual meetings
between senior executives and entrepreneurs in the Health Services &
Biopharma sector from both markets over the course of four days. The
meetings introduced and familiarized both parties with each of the local
innovation and startup ecosystems.
The networking initiatives represent part of ADIO’s efforts to
increase cooperation with Israeli companies and introduce investors to
the UAE. Since the normalization of relations between the UAE and Israel
through the Abraham Accords signed last September, ADIO has established
lines of formal cooperation with Israeli entities such as the Israel
Export Institute, the Manufacturers Association of Israel, Invest in
Israel and the Israel Innovation Authority.
Abu
Dhabi is ranked 12th globally in the World Bank’s “Ease of Doing
Business Subnational Report 2020”, and is a leading investment
destination, ADIO noted.
"ADIO’s
Israel office is our first international outpost, a reflection of our
ambitions to support Israeli companies looking to set up in the UAE,"
said H.E. Dr. Tariq Bin Hendi, Director General of ADIO. "Establishing
our office here is an important milestone in the relations between our
two markets and ADIO is fully committed to this partnership. The Israeli
office will enable companies, people and entrepreneurs to get to know
us in-depth and understand how we operate. Both our markets are aligned
on the importance of innovation and entrepreneurship, which will
undoubtedly play a key role in creating the solutions that will address
many of the challenges facing humanity."
“In
the wake of the historic Abraham Accords, sectors such as technology,
healthcare, agriculture, and financial services are fields in which the UAE
and Israel can champion a model of cooperation both regionally and
internationally," said H.E. Mohamed Mahmoud Al Khaja, the UAE Ambassador
to Israel. "ADIO in Tel Aviv will help Israeli companies navigate the
UAE’s economic landscape and unlock opportunities in Abu Dhabi.”
"What
distinguishes Abu Dhabi is that it is an accepting and cosmopolitan
environment, as well as being very structured and organized," said Tally
Zingher, Managing Director at Blue Laurel Advisors and CEO of Dawsat.
"This makes it easy for entrepreneurs to navigate and there is a big
opportunity here to enter a global market. Conversations between teams
from both countries went from 0 to 100 this fall. The openness is beyond
anyone’s expectations.”
