The Spanish Business Council recently hosted its #GalaDinner at the exquisite 99 Sushi Bar & Restaurant in Dubai. Over 130 guests filled the evening with elegance and meaningful connections as we celebrated ties between #Spain and the #UnitedArabEmirates.

Their presence underscored the deep-rooted friendship and the remarkable growth in economic ties between our two nations. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the inspiring speeches delivered by Guillermo Cobelo, President of the SBC, and the Ambassador of Spain to the UAE, Iñigo de Palacio España. Their words resonated deeply, reaffirming the strength of our alliance and the boundless potential for future endeavors.
