The UAE is working to attract the best talent to fulfill local requirements and attract foreign investment, as the country progressively announces sweeping new legal and professional reforms.
The comment came during an exclusive interview with Dr Thani Al Zeyoudi, the UAE Minister of State for Foreign Trade, on Dubai Eye 103.8's Business Breakfast.
Additionally, the UAE is home to numerous multinational companies that seek to recruit from the local talent market. Al Zeyoudi highlighted how the UAE must be able to provide the right ecosystem to aid its growth.
Recently announced changes to the work week that will align with the international standard, and laws that permit a younger workforce looking to gain real-time experience, are all part of a larger push towards the future of Dubai and the UAE into the next 50 years.
This development is however progressing in line with the future sectors, and those that the UAE deems a "priority sector" like agriculture-tech and space.
A strong professional growth rate and a highly accelerated knowledge sphere can cause individuals to explore options outside UAE that helped them reach that position.
Al Zeyoudi said the governing body is aware of this possibility and are tackling the situation by offering numerous career possibilities and growth prospects.
