Welcome to Abu Dhabi
It is both an exciting and defining time for our industry in the emirate . Abu Dhabi , the capital of the United Arab Emirates ( UAE ), continues to thrive as a dynamic , safe , global business and events hub .
The Abu Dhabi Convention & Exhibition Bureau ( ADCEB ) continuously develops new initiatives that aim to further bolster our MICE proposition and attract new business and incentive travellers from across the globe . Initiatives such as our enhanced Advantage Abu Dhabi Meetings and Incentives programme provide support for event organisers and meeting planners looking to host their business events in the capital .
We have also invested in the opening of new MICE venues , including Etihad Arena , and established new strategic partnerships such as the ADCEB-Miral Joint Fund to stimulate business events on a global level .
In addition , Abu Dhabi is uniquely located to welcome business travellers from all corners of the world , as we sit at the crossroads of the East and West . Easily accessible and within a four-hour flight for one-third of the global population , the destination continues to draw in delegates and visitors in vast numbers .
We look forward to welcoming you all to Abu Dhabi very soon .
