Australian Business Council in UAE

The Australian Business Council, Dubai (ABCD) is a non-profit organisation with a broad objective: to build connections within and to the Australian Community, both in Dubai and further afield.

The remit is to provide a platform that inspires community, develops business activities, promotes trade and enhances beneficial relationships between Australia and the region. Together, we continue to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports, and celebrates the diverse voices of all members and attendees at ABCD-organised events.

Equality is a core value for the Australian Business Council Dubai (ABCD), and the ABCD welcomes people of all genders, nationalities, cultures and backgrounds as we strive to create an environment that reflects the communities we serve. We believe that the combination of different backgrounds, skills and experiences creates a stronger organisation. Our commitment to celebrating and giving a voice to a diverse range of individuals, businesses and government representatives fuels not only stronger ties between Australia and the Gulf region but connects you more closely with your customers and their communities.

Membership is open to local branches of Australian companies, agents of Australian companies, companies or individuals who have business relationships with Australia, Australian citizens working in the Gulf, Alumni of Australian Universities in Dubai and Emirati companies.
