Abu Dhabi will send a senior economic delegation to Japan from 6 - 9 May 2025, as part of efforts to deepen collaboration with major global markets. Led by the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADDED) and supported by the UAE Embassy in Tokyo, the visit underscores the emirate’s strategy to forge stronger investment and trade partnerships with Japan.
The delegation brings together senior figures from both public and private sectors, including representatives from the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi, ADX, ADGM, ADIO, ADNOC, KEZAD, Hub71, and Abu Dhabi Airports, among others. Their focus will be on building links across strategic and high-growth sectors.
The visit comes as the UAE and Japan prepare to finalise a Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), expected to significantly boost bilateral trade and investment. The deal will support knowledge-sharing, technology transfer, and market expansion for businesses in both countries.
