What a mission looks like
From application to the next step.
A mission is the start of the route, not a trip on its own. What you learn in Dubai feeds straight into the decisions that follow.
- Step 1
Apply
Tell us about your company and what you want from the Gulf. Delegations are kept small, so places are limited.
- Step 2
Prepare
Before you travel, we shape the programme around the sectors and goals of the companies in the delegation.
- Step 3
Four days in Dubai
Company visits, partner meetings and free zone briefings, hosted in person by the group's Managing Partner.
- Step 4
Follow up
When you are ready for the next step, the group's companies pick it up.
