The Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) has launched the Future of Industry Dialogue initiative, a series of interactive meetings led by Dr Sultan Al Jaber, Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, with the representatives of leading industrial sectors in the UAE.

Reflecting the UAE's commitment to developing the national industrial ecosystem, the initiative is part of MoIAT's efforts to establish a new model of cooperation and build long-term partnerships between the government and the industrial sector. It focuses on identifying and mitigating sector-specific challenges and developing innovative laws, regulations and policies to drive sustainable industrial development with the aim of paving the way for the UAE to achieve its aspirations post-COVID-19.

Targeting heavy industry, F&B, pharmaceutical healthcare sectors, and other industrial sectors the initiative also seeks to facilitate knowledge and expertise exchange between the Ministry and UAE-based local and international companies, to enhance the industrial sector growth. In addition, it aspires to boost the local, regional and global competitiveness of UAE products.

The first meeting took place between the Ministry and companies in the heavy industries sector, including metals, minerals and construction.
