Georgian Business Council

The Georgian Business Council in UAE is a premier bilateral business platform established in September 2024 by Dubai Chamber of Commerce. As a non-profit organization, the Council serves as a vital bridge connecting businesses, entrepreneurs, and investors between Georgia and the United Arab Emirates. Operating under the framework of Dubai Chamber of Commerce's network of country-specific Business Councils, it represents the interests and aspirations of the growing Georgian business community in Dubai.

The Council was founded by prominent Georgian business leaders and professionals with established operations in the UAE, reflecting the increasing economic integration between the two markets. With over 114 active Georgian companies registered with Dubai Chamber of Commerce as of mid-2025, the Council addresses the needs of a dynamic and expanding business community. It serves Georgian enterprises seeking to establish or expand their presence in the UAE market, as well as Dubai-based companies interested in exploring opportunities in Georgia's strategic location at the crossroads of Europe and Asia.

Through organized trade missions, bilateral forums, B2B meetings, and networking events, the Council facilitates meaningful dialogue between business leaders, government officials, and investors from both nations. It provides market intelligence, advocacy support, and practical guidance to help companies navigate cross-border opportunities while contributing to the substantial growth in bilateral trade, which reached AED 2.8 billion in 2024.
