Mohamed Elkahla, Director of Business Development of Hospitality Management Holding The Emirates is a growing market and has all the components for success: oil, trade, and UAE tourism. UAE Tourism is actually the largest sector now. It is growing and there is demand here in the geographical situation of the UAE; it is between the West and the East, which makes it very attractive, you know. If people are traveling from, let’s say, the Far East and Europe, Dubai in particular has become like a hub; it’s the capital for commerce, tourism, and trade.

Siegfried Nierhaus, General Manager of Radisson SAS, Media City The same is the case with our Rezidor hotel group and the Radisson SAS grand. 2 years ago we brought the Radisson SAS back to Dubai, we took over a very important hotel in the Creek which is a former Intercontinental hotel which was the land mark of Dubai when it comes to five star hotels. The Radisson SAS took over this project to show to all the people in the Middle East who are used to this hotel that Radisson is here, Radisson is and is going to be an important player in the region and like all the important hotel companies we are having as well at least 20 projects in the pipeline
