The official inauguration ceremony of the ‘Development of Governmental Services’ Innovation Ecosystem’ saw the launching of DAFZ’s ‘The Big Conversation,’ a first-of-its-kind event aimed at overcoming obstacles and fostering process, service and product innovation across the government and freezone ecosystems to further enhance the experiences of foreign investors operating within the free zones in cooperation with government entities. The event is in line with DAFZ’s efforts to promote government integration in providing innovative services and products that help increase the flow of Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) to Dubai and enhance the gross domestic product (GDP). The new initiative is of great importance as it provides a strong impetus for national efforts to make the UAE one of the most innovative countries in the world by 2021.
