Participants consisted of several Chennai-based exporters representing varied industries, with a mix of large and medium companies, MSMEs, and start-ups. The event served not only as a platform to discuss opportunities for businesses in Chennai to benefit from the CEPA but also featured expert sessions led by representatives from the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry and DP World. Dubai Chamber underlined the important services and support it could offer Indian firms looking to expand their reach to the UAE, while DP World provided participants with an overview of the recently launched Bharat mart, highlighting its benefits to Indian exporters.
