Top 10 Indian Leaders in Dubai - 2022
Dubai has been one of the favourite locations for Indian expatriates. Often known as the pearl of the gulf, Dubai has done wonders to scale-up on the happiness quotient. It is one of the happiest countries to live in for residents and expats. Its proximity to Indian continent is another factor that makes it a favorite location for Indian expatriates. The country provides all the bounties of western world. A majority of Indian workers, either blue-collar workers or professionals, mostly fill the positions in traditional industries such as banking, retail, finance and construction. The country is also witnessing massive change, with the coming up of hundreds of new-age businesses including e-Commerce companies, tech startups, online media agencies, and others, and many major corporations have setup offices that handle modern aspects of business such as technology and digital marketing.
The high quality life of Dubai, with huge business opportunities and safety standards, make it high priority destination for Indians. The coming-up of new businesses have caused huge transition in the Dubai economy. Oil production, which once accounted for 50 percent of Dubai’s gross domestic product, contributes less than one percent today. Dubai is the top business gateway connecting both parts of the world. Technical developments and investment of tech-oriented businesses have opened up huge opportunities for young Indians. There is always great demand for technically proficient expatriates in Dubai.
