The Chamber has invested in developing its relevant technical infrastructure to hold online events, and communicate and interact with its audience, which has played a key role in its ability to address the private sector and meet its educational and informational requirements quickly and efficiently.

The webinar dealt with best practices for remote work for the private sector, the challenges that may arise from this shift in organisational work and structure, and the mechanisms, procedures and technologies used.
His Excellency Hamad Buamim, President & CEO, Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry, pointed out that smart transformation of the Chamber in organising events, and training workshops comes after its success in converting most of its core services, that it provides through its customer happiness center, into smart services . He highlighted that the Chamber has once again proven its ability to foresee the future, and has reaffirmed its readiness to serve the private sector to the best of its ability.
Buamim remarked on the Chamber’s commitment to review topics of strategic importance for the business sector.
