Why did we choose Dubai-Abu Dhabi?
The United Arab Emirates is a major international hub where investment opportunities are virtually unlimited. The UAE already hosts major international sporting events and organisations so is a natural home for the GPFL.
DUBAI-ABU DHABI
Dubai is the most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the capital of the Emirate of Dubai. Established in the 18th century as a small fishing village, the city grew rapidly in the early 21st century with a focus on tourism and luxury, having the second most five-star hotels in the world, and the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa.
Abu Dhabi is the capital and second-most populous city (after its GPFL partner) of the United Arab Emirates. It is also the capital of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi. Abu Dhabi’s rapid development and urbanization, coupled with the massive oil and gas reserves and production and relatively high average income, have transformed it into a large, developed metropolis. It is the country’s center of politics and industry, and a major culture and commerce centre.
