The virtual trade mission slated for September second week aims to drive collaboration between the UAE and India in the areas of fintech and healthcare. Dubai Technology Tour organised in partnership with Startup India and Mumbai Fintech Hub, a press release issued by the Dubai Chamber said, will familiarise delegates with Dubai’s economy and business environment.

The roadshow organised in 2019 in cooperation with Dubai Technology Enterpreneur Campus (Dtec), the largest hub of its kind in the region and wholly owned by Dubai Silicon Oasis Authority (DSOA), as part of a competition had selected two Indian startups and awarded them office space at Dtec.
