Dubai: Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC), the pioneer establishment for trade within the region, has embarked upon an impressive multi-billion dollar venture to expand Dubai's infrastructural capabilities, enabling the emirate's growth as a global destination for networking, business and lifestyle.
Hailed as one of the UAE's most ambitious development plans to date, DWTC will create two large-scale commercial destinations: Dubai Trade Centre Jebel Ali and Dubai Trade Centre District.
Dubai Trade Centre Jebel Ali is a 7 square kilometre integrated commercial destination anchored by the Dubai Exhibition Centre (DBX), 1 square kilometre major exhibition complex. Adjacent to the upcoming Al Maktoum International Airport, estimated to be the largest passenger and cargo airport in the world, DBX will have 120,000 square metres of exhibition space at launch, growing to 300,000 square metres by the final phase, providing a modern venue that is capable of hosting the world's largest and most prestigious events.
The 100 per cent increase in exhibition space provided by DBX will also afford the scope to immediately increase the size of some of the region's most successful trade events, such as CityScape, Gitex, Gulfood, Arabian Travel Market, and Arab Health.
Dubai Trade Centre District is positioned at the core of Dubai's business and financial district, encompassing the current exhibition centre and surrounding areas and stretching along Shaikh Zayed Road to Emirates Towers.
The District will create a new business quarter at the epicentre of the region's most dynamic city, offering premium Grade A office space, high-end retail and lifestyle outlets; a range of luxury and business hotels and serviced apartments-all set in open terraces, and tree-lined promenades.
