Participating in the event, which was attended by Atiq Juma Nasib, Director of Business Development Department in the DCCI, and Mohammed Hassan Al Khatib, Business Development Manager, provides the Dubai Chamber with an opportunity to promote its variety of commercial and added-value services offered to the business community and the mutual members of the DCCI and business councils. The DCCI team presented these services through providing the participants of the business councils annual gathering with printed information, brochures and publications, most important of which was the '1000 Numbers & Reasons Why Dubai' book which was highly appreciated and demanded by the attendants.
