Running from 27 to 29 January 2026 in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, UAE Scotland Week connects Scottish businesses with UAE investors, government representatives and innovation leaders across priority sectors including agritech, energy transition, advanced manufacturing and technology.
iLivestock’s participation reflects the growing global demand for innovative, sustainable solutions in livestock and food systems. The company is represented by Jamie Pugh, Chief Compliance Officer (CCO) and Co-Founder, who is engaging with potential UAE partners and investors as part of a programme of roundtables, one-to-one meetings and sector-led showcases.
UAE Scotland Week is led by Kate Forbes, Scottish Government Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Economy & Gaelic, and supported by Scottish Enterprise, SDI and the GlobalScot network. The initiative builds on momentum from Investopia Global, hosted in Edinburgh in December, and aims to help Scottish companies scale internationally while attracting inward investment.
The UAE remains a strategically important market for Scotland, offering a stable business environment and access to fast-growing global markets. In 2023, the UAE was Scotland’s 16th largest export destination, with exports valued at £635 million.
UAE Scotland Week has been developed in partnership with Investopia and the UAE Ministry of Economy and Tourism, reinforcing shared ambitions around innovation, sustainability and long-term economic collaboration.
By joining the delegation, iLivestock is positioning itself at the forefront of Scotland’s global trade efforts. Thereby, seeking to form meaningful partnerships, explore investment opportunities and bring its practical, farmer-led livestock technology to new international markets.
