The Abu Dhabi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ADCCI) has launched the Advocacy Hub initiative.
The Advocacy Hub aims to support and empower the private sector, boosting the private sector’s voice, promoting constructive dialogue, proposing innovative solutions to address challenges, and providing a platform for proposing ideas and recommendations on policies and legislation.
Through this initiative, a comprehensive set of services will be provided.
In the first phase of the launch, businesses from various commercial, investment, and industrial sectors will be invited to join and propose the formulation of Communal working groups in various economic activities, addressing the interests of businesses and enhancing their competitive capabilities.
The Chamber will assess the position of the private sector on an ongoing basis, identifying the challenges it faces, and proposing suggestions and practical and appropriate solutions to them.
During the second phase of the launch, 40 Communal Working Groups will be formed, representing various economic activities based on the proposals received from businesses.
His Excellency Abdulla Mohamed Al Mazrui, Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Chamber, commented: “The launch of the Advocacy Hub initiative is an embodiment of our wise leadership’s directives, aimed at supporting the private sector. Its purpose is to strengthen cooperation and build a true partnership between the public and private sectors, with the goal of preserving and developing the achievements made in Abu Dhabi in the field of comprehensive development.”
“The initiative will contribute to empowering the private sector, solidifying its role in boosting competitiveness of the business environment, leading to strengthening its position as the preferred destination for doing business by 2025. This will be achieved by affording the private sector with opportunities to participate in decision-making and contribute to the formulation of legislations that support the growth and prosperity of the business sector. The initiative focuses on identifying and discussing key challenges, as well as the most prominent solutions and ideas to enhance the prosperity of the different business sectors in Abu Dhabi,” he added.
