More than 95% of consumers live outside the United States. Selling more U.S.-made goods and services around the world is crucial to American jobs and will help businesses small and large grow. Expanding trade also enhances the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturers while boosting the buying power of American families. The International Affairs Division of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce leads the business community’s efforts to shape global policy.

The Biden Administration has prioritized efforts on ‘Climate Diplomacy’ since taking office in January 2021. Decarbonization, sustainability, and clean energy are top-tiered areas of focus as we enter a new era of U.S. leadership and global engagement. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has established itself as a leader through its response to climate change using cutting-edge technologies to curb emissions, improve energy efficiency, and deploy new sources of clean energy.
The United States and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) enjoy a strong and strategic bilateral relationship with the economic partnership serving as a critical avenue for mutual collaboration and investment. As a global hub for innovation, business, and finance, the UAE has increasingly become a more attractive destination for U.S. companies to invest and do business. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and its U.S.-UAE Business Program are ready to work with the Biden Administration as it considers the future of the U.S.-UAE bilateral relationship through the newly established Strategic Dialogue and continuation of the existing Economic Policy Dialogue.
