The UAE non-oil sector growth is accelerating rapidly, with economists projecting a 4.8% expansion in 2025. This impressive performance is fueled by booming industries such as tourism, real estate, retail, and hospitality, which are attracting record levels of foreign investment. Dubai’s tourism industry alone anticipates a more than 20% surge in visitor numbers this year, reinforcing the UAE’s position as a global destination for travelers, entrepreneurs, and international businesses. As the country continues to diversify beyond oil, its dynamic non-oil economy stands at the forefront of regional development.
