One very busy week of personal meetings and group meetings is now over. It flew by so quickly. We are happy to witness that many of the companies participating in the trade mission were able to get into serious talks about potential contracts. This is to show the level of competitiveness and innovation of Canadian businesses even in the global economic downturn.
Some companies were asked to bid on current projects in the UAE, right on the spot during their initial meeting. Some participants were honored to be invited to spend the day with members of the royal family in order to discuss their potential sponsorship agreement.
This first trip to the UAE for most of them has proved to exceed their expectations and we are quite certain that it will not be their last visit to the UAE.

The World Trade Center in Montreal, Qc is setting a trade mission to the United Arab Emirates. This trade mission will be focused on the construction industry. Even though the construction industry in general is slowing down due to the global economic crisis, we believe that innovative canadian companies can still take advantage of the huge opportunities in the GCC. This trade mission organized with the help of the Quebec Construction Association, will bring 8 Canadian companies to Dubai, Ras Al Khaima and Abu Dhabi from the 16th of April to the 23rd of April.
