The Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) has launched the third edition of the Industrialists Career Exhibition, which will take place at the Abu Dhabi Energy Centre from October 28 to 30, creating and matching jobs in the industrial and advanced technology sectors, a report said.

Salama Al Awadhi, Director of National In-Country Value Programme (ICV) at the MOIAT, said the third edition will offer more than 900 new jobs, including over 100 positions specifically for People of Determination, across 93 private companies in key sectors.

The exhibition aims to unite government entities, private sector companies, training institutions, and jobseekers, providing job and training opportunities aligned with factory needs and jobseekers’ skills and facilitating quick employment for Emirati talent, Emirates News Agency, WAM, said.

This edition will feature a variety of job opportunities, including on-site, office, and hybrid roles. For the first time, an instant matching system via an app designed especially for the exhibition will align jobseekers’ qualifications with available vacancies using the latest technology.

The three-day event builds on the successes of the first two editions, which facilitated more than 1,400 specialised jobs for Emirati talent, including 100 positions for People of Determination. So far, the event offered more than 2,300 jobs in three editions.

For the first time, the exhibition will also provide job and training opportunities for female national service recruits from the “Hama” programme, launched by the Government Development and the Future Office in partnership with the National Service and Reserve Authority (NSRA).

This new initiative aims to build specialised professional skills in five vital sectors, including industry and advanced technology.

The Industrialists Career Exhibition is a collaborative national effort between MoIAT, the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation, the Emirati Talent Competitiveness Council (Nafis), and ADNOC Group under the National In-Country Value (ICV) Programme, as part of the National In-Country Value Programme (ICV), one of the UAE’s Projects of the 50.
