The MTB team is delighted to welcome shipyard professionals and marine suppliers from around the world to the vibrant city of Dubai for the relaunch of MTB Shipyards. Over the next few days, we look forward to an incredible event packed with opportunities to connect, collaborate, and highlight the very best of the shipyard industry, all set against the stunning backdrop of this dynamic and iconic destination.

MTB ‘Meet the Buyer’ offers two action-packed days of pre-scheduled one-to-one meetings, expertly coordinated by the MTB Team. Delegates can engage in at least 15 targeted meetings, gaining valuable insights into the attending companies. But the networking doesn’t stop there. With many opportunities to connect during meals, tabletop presentations, and informal gatherings, this event is designed to foster meaningful connections and drive lasting partnerships.

In addition to supplier companies from all sectors of the shipyard industry, MTB Shipyards will bring together Global Technical and Purchasing Managers, Project Managers, Repair Managers, and Shipyard Managers. Attendees can look forward to connecting with representatives from shipyards across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, alongside global suppliers spanning all areas of the shipping industry.

Making it the perfect backdrop for MTB Shipyards, Dubai is a city with rich maritime history, rooted in the historic Dubai Creek. The city is also home to the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, standing at an awe-inspiring 828 meters, and the iconic Palm Jumeirah, a man-made island shaped like a palm tree. With over 200 nationalities calling Dubai home, it’s one of the most diverse places on the planet.

Those in attendance of MTB Shipyards will have the chance to experience the allure of Dubai over the course of three days. The middle night dinner will take place in a stunning location that captures the essence of Dubai, with views of iconic landmarks, offering delegates a unique opportunity to soak in the culture and charm of the city beyond their meetings. The final night promises to be a highlight, with the final celebration featuring delicious cuisine, traditional Middle Eastern entertainment, and a vibrant atmosphere as we raise a toast to the success of MTB Shipyards in this world-class destination.
