IFZA, Dubai’s most dynamic free zone community, has opened its latest office in Germany as part of its global expansion plans.

The move strengthens the robust relations between the UAE and Germany as well as it intends to facilitate the growth of business and investments between the two countries.

Launched as part of IFZA’s ongoing international expansion plans, the office will support the interest of German companies looking to establish trade relations with Dubai. Having a physical presence in Germany will enable IFZA to provide on-the-ground support, and establish direct connections with entrepreneurs, business leaders, investors, and IFZA Partners.

Jochen Knecht, CEO of IFZA, said that, “We believe that having a presence in Germany is crucial for building meaningful relationships. Our German office represents the next phase in our growth journey and will allow us to work more closely with key stakeholders in the country. It will also help us to utilize our core business expertise to enhance economic cooperation and drive investment to the UAE.”

In addition to supporting small and medium-sized enterprises in Germany looking to establish themselves in Dubai, IFZA will bridge the gap between the two markets by sharing investment intelligence and connecting businesses to potential partners.

The IFZA’s new office in Frankfurt will serve as a central point for IFZA to interact with the German business community, showcasing the ease of doing business and the unparalleled opportunities that Dubai offers for German companies seeking to expand to the UAE and beyond.

As part of its continued expansion, IFZA aims to open additional offices in Austria, the UK, India, Africa, and Latin America this year.
