ADNEC was established in August 2005 to provide Abu Dhabi with world-class facilities for business and continue to drive the city’s development as a commercial destination. The Company’s portfolio currently includes the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre, the Gulf’s largest exhibition centre; ExCeL London, the UK capital’s largest exhibition centre; Al Ain Convention Centre, a brand new development in the historic city of Al Ain; Capital Gate, the UAE capital’s iconic, gravity defying tower and a number of hotel projects.
The company’s objective is to become the world’s leading venue provider to the international exhibitions, conferences and live events industries by providing consistently high standards of venue facilities, management and client relationships and capitalising on the synergies which exist within a global venue network.
The Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre was opened in February 2007 by His Highness Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE and the Ruler of Abu Dhabi, and hosts over 100 events every year across a wide range of sectors.
