He added, "Thanks to the participating associations realizing the importance of live meetings and events more than ever, our ambassadors give the emirate a competitive character that motivates decision makers to choose Dubai as their destination for holding important conferences and events."

In addition to awarding the awards, the event saw the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism provide delegates with an overview of how Dubai’s tourism sector continues to lead the global recovery process, and Expo 2020 presented plans for transforming the site into District 2020. The event included a panel discussion in which the ambassador’s program members participated in discussing lessons Learned and planned upcoming events, during which global speaker and entrepreneur Krzysztof Seloch highlighted the importance of these events in practical life.
