What Is the Benefit of Expo 2020<br />

to Dubai?<br />

If you’re wondering what all the<br />

fuss is all about or why Expo 2020 is<br />

important, here’s why:<br />

1. Jobs<br />

In preparation for the most<br />

highly-anticipated event of the<br />

decade, Expo 2020 construction<br />

projects have provided many jobs<br />

in the market (905, 200 full-time<br />

equivalent job-years between 2013<br />

and 2031 as per World Exposition<br />

2020 website).<br />

There’s also a chance to be a<br />

vital part of history by applying for<br />

the various Expo 2020 Jobs in Dubai.<br />

2. Economy<br />

You might be wondering what<br />

Expo 2020 will contribute to the<br />

economy of the UAE. You’ll be glad<br />

to know that the economy is thriving.<br />

It is expected to continue to do<br />

so during the event and beyond<br />

(AED 122.6 billion economic boost<br />

between 2013 and 2031 as per<br />

Expo 2020 website).<br />

There is a 1.5% Expo contribution<br />

to UAE GDP for the entire World Expo<br />

2020 dates (from October 2020 to<br />

April 2021) as per the Expo 2020<br />

website.<br />

The Small and Medium Enterprise<br />

(SME) sector has seen AED 4.7 billion<br />

spending since November 2013 as<br />

per the official Expo 2020 website.<br />

3. Tourism<br />

Dubai is already a magnet for<br />

tourists, and the World Expo is a<br />

major draw that will increase the<br />

number tremendously.<br />

There are many hotels opening<br />

up in Dubai this year in honor of the<br />

iconic event.<br />

4. Real Estate<br />

Most importantly, the real estate<br />

market is already in full force since<br />

the event was announced in<br />

preparation for both short-term and<br />

long-term visitors.<br />
