The UAE-India Business Council UAE Chapter (UIBC-UC) and SP Jain School of Global Management, Dubai, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to collaborate on research initiatives and further strengthen academic ties between India and the UAE.

The agreement seeks to enhance UAE-India bilateral cooperation by combining the educational expertise of SP Jain with the business and diplomatic networks of UIBC-UC.

The collaboration will focus on joint research initiatives designed to tackle key challenges and unlock new opportunities in areas vital to both nations, such as sustainable business practices, technology-driven innovation, energy solutions, and the evolving role of education in a globalised economy.

“The UAE has become a bridge for educational institutions, and SP Jain’s success here can serve as a model for India. It shows how the right collaboration and enabling environment can allow Indian institutions to become leaders on the global stage,” said Faizal Kottikollon, Chairman of UIBC-UC and KEF Holdings.

He said as part of this collaboration, SP Jain students will gain unique access to the UIBC-UC’s august and extensive network of industry leaders, representing the most prominent companies trading in the UAE-India corridor.

“Through the sharing and study of key UIBC-UC case studies, students will have the opportunity to analyse and learn from how leading businesses navigate real-world challenges, making the learning experience more relevant and impactful,” Kottikollon said.

Recognising the demand for world-class business education in the UAE, SP Jain opened its Dubai campus, using the region as a launchpad to go global.

UAE-based students now benefit from rotational programs with sister campuses in Singapore, London, and Sydney, gaining a truly global perspective.
