He underscored that the UAE-India Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA), which was established to bolster economic ties, aligns with both countries’ commitments to green energy and sustainable development.
During the forum, Sheikh Khaled reaffirmed the importance of the CEPA in fostering economic growth and facilitating access to key markets. This agreement not only strengthens trade relations but also opens doors for more collaboration in renewable energy projects. The forum provided a platform for various agreements and initiatives aimed at enhancing this sector. Notably, discussions included strategies to support India’s growing renewable energy market and integrate advanced technologies into infrastructure projects.
Renewable energy was a focal point as the forum addressed future-ready economies and sustainable practices. Both nations are set to benefit from enhanced cooperation, leveraging their respective strengths to drive forward renewable energy initiatives. The strategic collaborations and agreements formed during the event reflect a shared vision for advancing clean energy technologies and achieving mutual sustainability goals.
The India-UAE Business Forum stands as a testament to the commitment of both countries to not only bolster economic ties but also address global challenges through renewable energy and sustainable practices.
