Mr. Manoj Kumar, Partner HLB Hamt, shared how Dubai continues to develop as a trans-continental hub for trade and commerce, helping to shape and catalyse economic development across the world and how Dubai’s innovative and robust economic models and extensive global trade footprint will see Expo 2020 Dubai provide participants with a unique and continuous stream of opportunity in the country and beyond.
