Delegation Focuses on Key Deals
His Excellency Ahmed Jasim Al Zaabi, Chairman of ADGM, was part of the high-level delegation led by ADGM. Talks built on the UAE-Italy strategic partnership.
The engagements form part of the UAE-Italy strategic partnership signed in 2025, which was followed by a visit by an Abu Dhabi economic delegation to Italy in January 2026. That trip sealed agreements. They cover financial services, manufacturing, advanced manufacturing, entrepreneurship, and AgriTech.
Al Zaabi stressed ADGM’s strengths. “We have built a financial centre that offers clarity, enforceability, and long-term stability,” he said. “Through ADGM, capital can be structured and deployed with confidence.”
The delegation attended Salone del Mobile launch. This event shapes design and retail markets. It links Abu Dhabi’s creative clusters to global players.
