According to Emirates News Agency, the international roadshows will take place in Singapore on 27th October, China on 29th October, Ankara on 17th November, and Istanbul on 19th November, marking a major step in Abu Dhabi’s urban transformation and global collaboration strategy.
Supported by the Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT) as Government Partner and Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) as Ecosystem Partner, the ADIS Roadshows will convene contractors, consultants, architects, developers, and technology providers to explore co-investment opportunities, build strategic partnerships, and formalise long-term collaboration through MoU signings.
Mohamed Ali Al Shorafa, Chairman of the Department of Municipalities and Transport, emphasized the importance of international collaborations in city development. The ADIS Roadshows aim to forge high-impact partnerships with global leaders and enable knowledge exchange to develop innovative solutions for future cities.
The Abu Dhabi delegation, led by Eng. Maysarah Mahmoud Salim Eid, Director-General of ADPIC, will include senior government officials and industry leaders from leading Abu Dhabi developers: LEAD Development, Aldar, Modon, Bloom, and Gridora.
By connecting Abu Dhabi entities with global stakeholders, the roadshows aim to unlock new avenues for market access and co-develop future-ready urban solutions, advancing international cooperation across sustainable infrastructure, smart city planning, and large-scale project delivery.
Eng. Eid highlighted the significance of the roadshows, stating that they take Abu Dhabi’s US$54 billion infrastructure pipeline to sophisticated markets like Singapore, Trkiye, and China, all crucial to Abu Dhabi’s urban transformation strategy.
The roadshows will feature a one-day strategic conference, site visits, and B2B meetings, offering participants insights into Abu Dhabi’s development pipeline, project opportunities, and public-private partnership frameworks.
In Singapore, the programme will connect Abu Dhabi’s developers with top-tier architects, consultants, and tech players to explore joint ventures in modular construction, smart city planning, and digital twins.
The China roadshow will involve high-level meetings in Shanghai, where the ADPIC delegation will engage with senior leadership from leading contractors and construction companies to explore strategic partnerships.
In Trkiye, the roadshow will focus on engaging leading developers and infrastructure authorities in Ankara and Istanbul to highlight Abu Dhabi’s PPP frameworks, financing models, and megaproject pipeline.
The ADIS roadshows are a continuation of the Abu Dhabi Infrastructure Summit 2025, which welcomed more than 4,000 participants from over 100 countries, fostering new partnership opportunities across the ecosystem.
