Global supply chains are being re-drawn.

From rising tariffs to energy volatility, the industrial map is changing. In this new reality, scale alone is no longer sufficient. Resilience, sustainability and technological edge will define tomorrow's industrial landscape.

Amid this global realignment, Abu Dhabi is emerging as a strategic industrial powerhouse, delivering impact.

This shift hasn't happened by accident. It reflects a bold vision, disciplined execution and targeted investments. Central to this is the Abu Dhabi Industrial Strategy 2031 (ADIS), which aims to double the sector's contribution to GDP by 2031.

Digitally-enabled manufacturing

The goal: to establish the emirate as a globally competitive base for digitally advanced, sustainable manufacturing.
