Abstract:
The aim of the thesis deals with the phenomenon of the internationalization of Italian companies operating in the Middle East market: the focus will be especially on those operating in the green economy. The study will concentrate, in its first part, on an overall description of the green economy and the weight it plays in the United Arab Emirates, adding the general trend of the sector.
The second part, instead, will consider and study the main international actors and their efforts in the green economy sector and for the sustainable development goals fixed by United Nations. After a short overview of the green economy in Italy, there will be a case study of an Italian company as an example of success in the green economy sector in the UAE.
Finally, I will expose and evaluate the emerging green economy market, referring particularly to the growth prospects in the UAE, and the opportunities that green economy offers to Italian companies, which want to carry out their business in the Emirates. There will also be a short description regarding coronavirus and its effect on the sector.
The study will be supported above all by official institutions data, such as Chambers of Commerce, Ministry of Foreign Affairs and others supporters of internationalization.
