   I thank the Institute of Directors, India for organizing this important annual convention. I fully support the premise of this event: that the well-established and continually expanding links between private business, governments, and people of India and the United Arab Emirates are extremely important. I take great hope and comfort from the special relationship between our two countries.

Glimpses From the Past Events

Testimonials

The IOD, India has been a champion for what I describe as responsible capitalism over many years. And what you have done is champion issues such as corporate social responsibility, minority shareholding, sustainability, and all of this before it became either fashionable or indeed became a must for corporate leaders to talk about.”

The Rt. Hon. Alok Sharma, MP
(the then) Hon’ble Minister of State for Employment at the Department of Work and Pensions Govt. of UK

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to the Institute of Directors (IOD) for this esteemed opportunity. I commend the IOD for organizing such a prestigious event in the UAE, a hub of innovation and business excellence, and for their valuable partnership with the Ministry of Economy.

His Excellency Abdullah Ahmed Al Saleh
Undersecretary of the Ministry of Economy, Government of UAE

I think I have to compliment IOD because they started talking about governance and
role of directors from 1990 onwards which was not as fashionable as it is today.

Ajay Piramal
Chairman
Piramal Group & Shriram Group

IOD does a great job of corporate governance as 3.3 million Indians are constantly connected to developments in India.”

Mr. Vipul
Consul General of India in Dubai
