Access
Abu Dhabi
for long-term growth.* Heed the call.
Access Abu Dhabi is designed to engage, enable and empower companies, particularly women and minority entities, to fast track their global reach with expansion to Abu Dhabi. The program, created by Maven Global Access and powered by the Abu Dhabi Investment Office, will serve as a conduit for companies entering the capital of UAE’s burgeoning business and innovation ecosystem.
The program is an initiative built upon diversity and one of Abu Dhabi’s many efforts to support female leadership in the workforce. Women play a key role in the economic landscape of the UAE, occupying 66% of jobs in the public sector – one of the highest proportions worldwide. With more than 200 nationalities that call the UAE and Abu Dhabi home, diversity is part of the emirate’s DNA.
