Abu Dhabi Permanent Virtual Exhibition and Business Directory

Known as the richest city in the world, Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates and the largest of the seven emirates federation, is famed for its signature Corniche, which fronts the astonishing turquoise waters of the Arabian Gulf.

Abu Dhabi is the centre of the Emirates' commercial, cultural, industrial and political activities and home to the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange, the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates and the corporate headquarters of many companies and numerous multinational corporations.

Abu Dhabi owns the majority of the UAE's hydrocarbon wealth – 95% of the oil and 6% of gas; Abu Dhabi thus holds 9% of the world's proven oil reserves and almost 5% of the world's natural gas.

Abu Dhabi has actively attempted to diversify its economy in recent years through investments in financial services and tourism. The emirate is currently expanding its airport, building a new port and developing a rail link between Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
