The agreement is aimed at strengthening bilateral cooperation and unlocking new opportunities for partnerships between entrepreneurs in Dubai and European countries.
The MoU was signed on the sidelines of Expand North Star 2025, organised by Dubai World Trade Centre and hosted by Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy, which concludes today at Dubai Harbour. The signing ceremony was attended by Saeed AlGergawi, Vice President of Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy, and Federico Menna, Chief Executive Officer of 28DIGITAL.

By enhancing collaboration between the technology ecosystems of Dubai and Europe, we seek to develop new and impactful pathways for innovation, investment, and growth across all digital sectors.”
Under the terms of the MoU, the two parties will work together to create new opportunities for tech ventures. Key areas of cooperation include market discovery, facilitating business and investment opportunities, and providing comprehensive support for companies seeking to establish a presence in either Dubai or Europe. Both organisations will also promote active participation in their respective innovation ecosystems, organise business missions, provide investor referrals, and facilitate access to local incubators, accelerators, and finance services.
