Namibia Comes to Dubai: Unlocking New Investment Horizons in Africa
Dubai is set to welcome a distinguished delegation from Namibia in October 2025, marking a pivotal moment for strengthening business ties between Africa and the Middle East. The initiative is being facilitated by the office of Abdulla Momade, Chief Representative of SADC – Africa Region, and will feature high-level meetings with the Namibia Investment Promotion and Development Board (NIPDB).
For Dubai businesses keen to establish a strategic presence in one of Africa’s fastest-growing markets, this mission represents a golden opportunity. Namibia has recently emerged as a beacon for global investment. The country’s world-class oil and gas discoveries, coupled with its burgeoning renewable energy sector, have made it a prime destination for investors seeking both stability and growth.
Beyond its vast offshore energy reserves, Namibia is actively positioning itself on the global stage as a hub for green hydrogen, logistics, mining, tourism, and agribusiness. This diversification allows investors to tap into multiple sectors with access to both regional and international markets. The country’s progressive investment climate, combined with its recent successes, sets it apart as a future powerhouse in Africa.
As Abdulla Momade highlighted, “For Dubai businesses looking to establish a footprint in Namibia, this is a golden opportunity. The country is fast becoming one of Africa’s most promising markets, blessed by world-class oil & gas discoveries, growing renewable energy potential, and a stable investment climate.” His remarks underline the significance of the upcoming visit for both Namibian and Emirati stakeholders.
Companies and entities in Dubai are encouraged to proactively reach out to the SADC regional office to secure their meeting slots with the NIPDB during this landmark visit. Collaboration channels like the Dubai International Chamber and initiatives under the World In Focus banner are also supporting the event’s objectives.
This official mission to Dubai signifies not just a deepening of business ties, but also a recognition of Namibia’s growing role in shaping Africa’s investment landscape. As opportunities in sectors ranging from energy to tourism continue to expand, the Namibian delegation’s visit is set to open new doors for partnership and economic growth.
