Schneider Electric Commentary |Emirati Women's Day| Amel Chadli, President of Gulf Cluster, Schneider Electric

As we mark Emirati Women's Day under this year's inspiring theme "Hand in Hand, We Celebrate 50 Years," I am honored to reflect on the extraordinary contributions of Emirati women to the UAE’s success story over the past five decades.

This year’s celebration, which coincides with the Year of Community, serves as a powerful reminder of what inclusive leadership can achieve. Emirati women are not only contributing across every sector of the economy, they are leading. At Schneider Electric, I am proud to work alongside an inspiring group of Emirati women who are redefining what it means to lead in the fields of energy, technology, and sustainability.

From engineering future-ready smart infrastructure to driving the UAE’s Net Zero ambitions, Emirati women at Schneider Electric are making a tangible impact every day. I am personally committed to nurturing this exceptional talent and creating an environment where Emirati women can thrive, lead, and shape the future of our industry.

Empowering women is not just a value, it is a responsibility. Together, we are building a more inclusive and innovative future for the UAE and beyond.
