Free zones offer a unique opportunity to strengthen government-business collaboration and help mitigate trade security and road safety risks.
At the World Free Zones Organization’s annual International Conference & Exhibition in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, IRU briefed a large audience of business leaders and key decision makers on proven tools to overcome safety and security challenges.
