    The Chairman and CEO of one of the world’s largest port operators will speak at Asia House’s major trade dialogue in Dubai this March.

    His Excellency Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Group Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of DP World, will give a keynote speech at the The Future of Trade: The Middle East’s Pivot to Asia conference, held in partnership with DMCC on 24 March.

    With DP World positioned at the junction of trade and innovation, Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem is a leading authority on the global trade system and the forces shaping it. He will bring a unique perspective and informed insights to this high-level Asia House dialogue.
