About the event
What is Make it in the Emirates?
Make it in the Emirates is the UAE's main industrial platform, supporting the national strategy to grow manufacturing and localise supply chains. It brings together ministries, national companies such as ADNOC, investors and manufacturers to announce offtake agreements, investments and new factories. Exhibitors cover sectors from advanced manufacturing and food to health, space and defence supply chains.
The 2026 edition welcomed 146,329 visitors and 1,245 exhibitors across 88,000 square metres, with more than 200 agreements signed and AED 180 billion in offtake commitments announced. With so many signings and announcements, exhibitors need fast, professional photos and videos for press releases and social posts on the same day.
