Foreword
Adam Ralph
Country Manager, UAE
It is my pleasure to present the very first edition of our UAE market intelligence report.
Our report combines economic outlook with the views and experiences of industry professionals, to provide general sentiment for the market, identify where disruption is likely to continue, and explore the outlook for the UAE’s construction industry.
Despite the impacts of global inflation, rising costs of construction, supply chain disruption, and contractual and legal constraints, the Middle East and indeed the UAE, is now experiencing significant market activity with a new wave of landmark projects announced.
Furthermore, with COP28 now firmly on the horizon, there is no doubt that a welcomed increase in environmental legislation will drive a green and more sustainable agenda for the country’s development aspirations, and in turn the construction industry.
I hope that you will benefit from the insights shared within this report.
