Louvre Abu Dhabi Extends The Submission Deadline For Made With Louvre Abu Dhabi
Louvre Abu Dhabi has extended the deadline for proposal submissions to Made with louvre Abu Dhabi until 30 April 2025, following a strong response from local small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This extension ensures even more businesses have the opportunity to take part in this distinctive initiative and showcase their creativity.
The Made with Louvre Abu Dhabi initiative is aimed at forging innovative brand collaborations with UAE-based SMEs. This programme is designed to celebrate the iconic cultural and architectural heritage of the museum while fostering creativity and sustainable growth within the UAE.
Themed around the museum’s iconic architecture, the first edition of this initiative invites UAE-based businesses to draw inspiration from Louvre Abu Dhabi’s breathtaking design and rich cultural tapestry. This collaboration will result in the creation of an exclusive range of innovative, high-quality products that embody the spirit of the museum and resonate with both local and international audiences.
The collaboration with the museum provides local SMEs with a unique opportunity to showcase their expertise by developing exclusive, branded products. These items will be available at both the SMEs’ stores and the museum’s Boutique. This collaboration not only enhances the visibility of local businesses but also offers the museum a curated selection of high-quality, bespoke products, fostering a mutually beneficial relationship that supports small businesses and the local economy.
With a strong emphasis on celebrating UAE heritage and supporting the local economy, this programme reflects Louvre Abu Dhabi’s commitment to its community. By providing local businesses with opportunities to connect and showcase their talents, the initiative highlights UAE craftsmanship and creativity on a global stage.
