HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA), met Sir John Rose, deputy chairman of Rothschild & Co. Sir John was accompanied by Saeed Al Awar, partner and head of Rothschild Middle East.

The meeting was attended by senior DEWA officials, including Waleed bin Salman, Executive Vice President of Business Development & Excellence, and Marwan Bin Haidar, Executive Vice President of Innovation and the Future.

Discussions focused on how to scale world-class capital-intensive businesses where reliability, operational excellence and long-term planning are essential. The meeting also covered innovative financing structures for long-cycle infrastructure projects, international expansion strategies relevant to regional utilities and practical pathways for DEWA to unlock additional value from global growth opportunities.
