The incentives include financing up to 80 percent of capital expenditures at low interest rates, with grace periods of two years, and a repayment period of up to 15 years, reducing industrial fees, reducing tariffs for services, facilitating exports into new markets, and financing via 7 major financing institutions.
The incentives also include facilitating access to financing sources, such as soft loans, trade finance and credit solutions to support exports by the Abu Dhabi Export Support Office and the Export Credit Union.  
Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development launched several programs to support the industrial sector and enhance its competitiveness, such as the Abu Dhabi Local Content Program (ADLC) and the Electric Tariff Incentive Program (ETIP) along with initiatives to improve the sector's financing environment. Other enabling factors introduced at the forum include discounts on land and office rental at KIZAD, and up to an 18-month grace period on land rentals at Tawazun Industrial City.
