(MENAFN) Abu Dhabi’s Higher Corporation for Specialized Economic Zones’ (ZonesCorp) chief executive, Mohammed al Qamzi, said that since its establishment in 2004, the industrial development body was able to attract USD6 billion in investments, reported Arabian Business.
Al Qamzi added that the ZonesCorp established three industrial cities in Abu Dhabi and two in Al Ain and spent USD952 million on infrastructure at these cities that spanned over an area of 39 sq km.
