LOCATION

Abu Dhabi is the largest emirate in the UAE and is divided into three regions: Abu Dhabi City on the coast, Al Ain in the east, and Al Dhafra in the west.

Abu Dhabi City is the commercial and cultural centre of the emirate. Located on the coast of the Arabian Gulf, it encompasses several islands, including Yas Island - a world-class entertainment destination, and Saadiyat Island - renowned for its cultural attractions, including Louvre Abu Dhabi.

Evolution of the economy

Human settlers are believed to have first arrived in Abu Dhabi during the Stone Age. The Bani Yas tribe, from which the ruling Al Nahyan family is directly descended, first settled around the Liwa Oasis in 1761. Today, Abu Dhabi is a leading international financial capital, global business hub and tourism destination, and attracts significant foreign direct investment into a number of vital economic sectors

Before 1958, the emirate’s main industry was the export of pearls. Since the discovery of oil, Abu Dhabi is one of the world’s leading producers of energy, with daily production volumes at approximately 3.5 million barrels of crude oil and 10.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas.

R&D and innovation

Abu Dhabi is a world-leading, dynamic hub for innovation with a thriving research and development ecosystem, supported by several initiatives and entities established to advance the sectors in the emirate that are contributing to the growth of the emirate’s knowledge-based economy.

In 2020, the Advanced Technology Research Council, a first-of-its-kind in the Middle East, was launched to set and oversee the emirate’s strategy for R&D and to invest in knowledge development to enable breakthrough discoveries.

Community and culture

The Abu Dhabi way of life is built upon cultural values of diversity, inclusivity and tolerance. It is a place where history is respected, differences are celebrated and modern perspectives are embraced. Home to more than 200 nationalities, the emirate offers a world-class quality of life where modernity exists in harmony with traditional Emirati hospitality.

Abu Dhabi prides itself for its heritage and tribal history, which stretches back more than two millennia. The preservation and promotion of its history, culture and natural wonders in a rapidly growing economy has allowed modern artistic expression to blend with human values of inclusivity, diversity and harmony.

Abu Dhabi emirate is spread across 67,340 sqkm, including 200 natural islands. Its strategic location at the nexus of three continents means that Abu Dhabi benefits from global connectivity, with two-thirds of the world’s population within an eight-hour flight.
