US Companies And Their Headquarters In The UAE

 As the world's largest economy, the United States (US) has been among the preferred investment destinations for UAE (United Arab Emirates) investors. American companies have also invested in the UAE, with their headquarters located across the UAE. Microsoft, Oracle, Tesla, LinkedIn, Cisco, and Facebook have headquarters in Dubai, a city in the UAE. 

In 2020, investors from the Emirates accounted for about $45 billion of FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) flows to the US. In 2021, there was more than US$25 billion in bilateral trade between the two countries. 

Earlier, Marisa Lago, US Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade, said there was enormous potential to further boost US-UAE trade ties.

Over the past few years, many US companies have established a presence in the UAE. In 2016, US startup incubator 1776 opened an office in Dubai. In 2017, Elon Musk’s Tesla opened an office in the UAE. Microsoft also marked a major milestone when it opened two cloud region data centers in the UAE in 2019.

The UAE is the single-largest export market for the US in the MENA (the Middle East and North Africa) region, with more than 1,500 US companies operating in the country. The UAE is the preferred location for American companies because of its business-friendly environment,  durable banking sector, and diversified economy. The US recognizes the opportunities offered by the UAE economy, and many companies base their headquarters and regional offices in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the UAE, and Dubai.

 US investments in the UAE support the creation of jobs and provide liquidity to capital markets in many sectors, including aerospace, manufacturing, high technology, real estate, and logistics. Major global companies like Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, General Motors, Nova Chemicals, FedEx, Eli Lilly & Company, Mayo Clinic, and Cigna Healthcare also have headquarters in the UAE. Major US firms Microsoft, Oracle, and Tesla have also established a huge market in the UAE.
