Why Dubai?
In a very short period of time, Dubai has risen from the very
grains of the desert, gracefully turning into the pearl of the
Gulf. A modern city, with skyscrapers competing to reach the
highest cloud, thats Dubai.
Dubai, given the current consequences of the Arab World, is
almost a miracle. With 2.106 million people living in Dubai,
and over 180 nationalities, Dubai is the definition of bridging
the gap between countries of different backgrounds. Its a
place where people from all the corners of the Earth come
together to exchange not only ideas, but also cultures.

For Dubai and the UAE as a whole, hosting such a highcaliber exhibition could fuel the future pillars of the economy.
Retail Segment
According to Business Monitor International, the UAEs retail
market will be worth Dhs151m by 2015. The remarkable growth
seen in the sector over the past twelve months was in part due
to 12% growth of Dubais luxury goods market. d3 aims to
capitalize on this market potential by becoming the center of
gravity for design, fashion and luxury as businesses within these
industries flock to the Emirate to showcase their creations to
one of the most diverse communities of consumers in the world.
Tourism
growing this figure in line with Dubais Tourism Vision 2020, the
Emirate has the potential to eclipse London as the capital of
retail spending.
As stated by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al
Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler
of Dubai, once said, Most people talk, we do things. They plan,
we achieve. They hesitate, we move ahead. We are living proof
that when human beings have the courage and commitment
to transform a dream into reality, there is nothing that can stop
them. Dubai is a living example of that.
