Both sides will also explore fresh opportunities for collaboration in sectors such as maritime and space, which hold high growth potential.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">Goyal\u2019s two-day UAE visit from September 18-19 will also feature a co-chaired roundtable of the UAE-India Business Council (UIBC) with Dr Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi, the UAE\u2019s minister of foreign trade, as well as interactions with top CEOs from both nations. Bilateral meetings will focus on boosting trade, investment, and sectoral cooperation.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">The minister is further expected to meet Sheikh Tahnoun bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE\u2019s national security adviser and chairman of International Holding Company (IHC), Ahmed Jasim Al Zaabi, chairman of the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development, and Syed Basar Shueb, MD of IHC, among other key stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">The 12th HLJTFI, held in Mumbai in October 2024, saw the ratification of the Bilateral Investment Treaty signed during PM Narendra Modi\u2019s visit to the UAE earlier that year. Since its inception in 2013, the HLJTFI has served as a key platform for advancing economic ties and resolving investor concerns.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\" class=\"story_para_5\">The UAE continues to be one of India\u2019s most important strategic partners, with robust engagement across energy, defence, technology, and food security. Since CEPA came into force in May 2022, bilateral merchandise trade has nearly doubled \u2014 from $43.3 billion in FY21 to $83.7 billion in FY24 \u2014 with a strong push towards non-oil sectors.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atawrap\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atadetailwrp\">\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd ataname\"><span class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atthumb\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Aparna Deb\" title=\"Aparna Deb\" src=\"https:\/\/images.news18.com\/ibnlive\/uploads\/?impolicy=website&amp;width=60&amp;height=60\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd\"\/><\/figure>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd attitle\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news18.com\/byline\/aparna-deb-20948.html\" class=\"jsx-95088aad1b3c53cd atamail\">Aparna Deb<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Aparna Deb is a Subeditor and writes for the business vertical of News18.com.
