Joint Core Values with UAE
Viva Valentia DMCC Management’s Tribute to the United Arab Emirates and Its Leaders for Being Our Role Models.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE), and particularly the Emirate of Dubai, have undergone an astonishing development leap in recent decades, based on clear long-term visions.
Dubai’s economic vision extends to 2040, aiming to shape Dubai into the world’s best city to live in. This is part of Dubai’s 2040 urban development plan, which focuses on improving quality of life and sustainable city growth.
Additionally, the ambitious “Dubai Economic Agenda D33” has been launched, which, among other goals, aims to double Dubai’s GDP by 2033 and make Dubai the world’s fastest-growing, safest, and most connected city.
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s strategic objectives emphasize innovation, a knowledge-based economy, and economic diversification, ensuring Dubai remains a leader in global competitiveness. This vision has led Dubai to become one of the world’s leading business and financial hubs—the emirate is ranked among the top twenty financial centers globally and firmly holds the number one spot in the region.
Such a success story—a journey from a trading post to an entrepreneurial hub—has been achieved through a long-term vision, investments in infrastructure and human capital, and openness to international business.
We, the management and employees of Viva Valentia DMCC, express deep respect and appreciation to His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and other UAE leaders who have shaped the country into an innovative and internationally recognized economic center, providing our company with essential opportunities.
Their strategic thinking and commitment serve as our role models.
We aim to continue on this path, striving for maximum innovation, sustainability, and excellence in our field to achieve Viva Valentia’s vision—becoming the leading mining company in the United Arab Emirates by 2040.
DMCC’s Role in the Precious Metals and Mining Sector
The Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) has become a globally important hub for the precious metals and mining sector. DMCC is recognized as the “world’s leading commodities trading center,” particularly popular among companies dealing with precious stones and metals.
Dubai’s reputation as the “City of Gold” is no coincidence—approximately 15% of the world’s gold trade is estimated to pass through Dubai, most of which goes through DMCC.
Such a significant market share confirms Dubai as a global leader in precious metals trading. DMCC has created top-notch infrastructure for this sector:
- Modern precious metal vaults
- A dense network of refining plants
- Specialized trading platforms (e.g., Dubai Gold Exchange (DGCX) and DMCC Tradeflow)
These strategic advantages attract mining companies from around the world to Dubai, offering a reliable center for refining and marketing their production while integrating traditional trade with modern technology.
United Arab Emirates and Viva Valentia DMCC’s Joint Vision for 2040
Just as Dubai aims to become the world’s number one city by 2040, Viva Valentia’s goal is to become the leading mining company in the United Arab Emirates by 2040.
Shared Values Between Viva Valentia and UAE
Innovation and Technology in the Mining Sector:
Both the UAE and Viva Valentia view innovation as a driving force for economic development. The UAE is investing in artificial intelligence, blockchain, and digital supply chains to make the precious metals industry more transparent. Viva Valentia plans to implement 3D mapping, remote sensing, and automated mining technologies in the future to enhance efficiency and safety.
Sustainability and Responsible Mining:
- The UAE aims to make Dubai a green economy hub. Viva Valentia contributes to environmental protection by adhering to international sustainability standards and ensuring responsible mining practices.
- The UAE is open to international partnerships and investments. Viva Valentia will establish strategic partnerships globally to bring innovation and sustainable solutions to the mining sector.
Viva Valentia and Dubai—A Shared Path to the Top by 2040
Dubai has proven that with a grand vision, it’s possible to change the world. The same ambition drives Viva Valentia:
- Bold Vision
- Innovation and Technology
- Responsibility and Sustainability
- Global Reach and Partnerships
Just as Dubai aims to be “the world’s number one city by 2040,” Viva Valentia aspires to be the leading mining company in the UAE by 2040. Our goal is not just business success—we aim to help shape the future of the mining industry while adhering to the UAE’s high standards and values.
Thanks to the opportunities and support provided by the UAE, Dubai, and DMCC, along with a strong vision, Viva Valentia is ready to take the next step toward global mining sector innovation and responsible development.
The management and board of Viva Valentia thank the UAE for this opportunity and promise that Viva Valentia’s shareholders will be as proud of Viva Valentia’s future achievements as they are of the UAE’s and Dubai’s achievements today.
The word “impossible” is not in the leaders’ dictionaries.
“No matter how big the challenges, strong faith, determination, and resolve will overcome them.”
— His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
