    go to business events related to the field this company is operating in , like exhibitions or investment shows etc , where you can meet local investors or business men wishing to work or invest in that area.

    Also thru personal contacts of people in expat business councils or forums / training meets held at chamber of commerce. Probably the top 10 richest local business men all have major auto dealerships , you can ask there where the owners office is located an pay them a visit with your proposal.

    Sas is correct in saying the ruling families will probably not be interested because why should they invest in a company if they can buy it. And they already have so many.

    Not every one with "Qassimi" last name in Sharjah is related to ruling family , there are some who are not related in any way , just name similarity.

    al maktoums and al qassimi will not entertain small businesses for sponserships.

    contact doc clearing agents and they will be able to suggest u or arrange meetings to slect local sponser.
