In a Dubai Eye radio interview, Managing Partner for the Middle East and Africa Murtaza Ali Khan discussed the future of artificial intelligence and trade relations as the region readies for President Trump's visit.
He highlighted how trade discussions and collaboration between US and UAE companies—particularly if the administration rolls back the AI diffusion rule—could drive job creation across sectors like AI and energy. With emerging technologies advancing quickly, Murtaza noted a growing demand for specialised talent, which may be in short supply. He also emphasised the UAE’s commitment to attracting and retaining skilled professionals, supported by evolving visa options like the Golden and Green Visas.
