His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defense, and Chairman of the Dubai Executive Council, has announced that the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) generated an economic output exceeding AED 22.35 billion in 2024.

The announcement follows His Highness's review of the DWTC's 2024 Economic Impact Assessment Report, which highlights the centre's growing role as a key driver of Dubai’s economy.

The report revealed that DWTC hosted over 100 major events throughout the year — a 32% increase from 2023 — attracting around two million participants from across the globe.

In a post on his official X platform account, Sheikh Hamdan stated: “These figures reflect Dubai’s leadership and position as a global capital for business and innovation, and consolidate the centre’s position not only as a platform for hosting the most important exhibitions and conferences, but also as a driver of comprehensive development and a key supporter of the Dubai Economic Agenda D33.”

He added that the Dubai World Trade Centre is not just a venue, but a strategic enabler of economic growth — creating opportunities, building partnerships, and shaping the future. The DWTC’s success in 2024 aligns with Dubai’s broader economic goals under the D33 agenda, which aims to double the size of Dubai’s economy and establish it as one of the top global cities for business and innovation.
