Gulf Today
|May 09, 2025
The Ministry of Economy announced the launch of the geographical indications (GI) system for national products - the first-of-its-kind federal initiative designed to safeguard local products with unique features and characteristics that originate from specific geographical regions in the UAE.

The initiative aims to enhance the intellectual property (IP) protection framework for products with national identity and unlock new opportunities for UAE’s industries in global markets.
The launch event was organised by the Ministry in the presence of Lieutenant General Dhahi Khalfan, Deputy Chief of Police in Dubai, and Abdullah Ahmed Al Saleh, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Economy, in collaboration with the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority, Dubai Municipality's Food Safety Department, Ras Al Khaimah Department of Economic Development, the General Women’s Union, and the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi. It was attended by over 200 participants, including senior officials, experts, specialists, and representatives from government and private sector entities, along with the local community and various institutions concerned with IP protection and sustainable development in the country.
