“Technology has become the largest and fastest-growing sector in our business district, reflecting Dubai’s position as one of the world’s leading destinations for innovation and high-growth businesses. As that community has expanded, so too has the need for more specialized platforms that support different segments of the technology economy. DMCC Tech brings these communities together under a single ecosystem, while DMCC Cyber reflects the growing importance of cybersecurity in an increasingly digital world. Together, they strengthen our ability to help technology companies establish, connect and scale internationally from Dubai, with direct access to one of the world’s most dynamic business communities.”
DMCC Tech spans artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, blockchain, gaming and other emerging technologies, while also supporting innovation in areas including the space economy, satellites, earth observation and space-derived data.
DMCC said the platform is designed to accelerate commercial growth across the digital economy, while DMCC Cyber strengthens the resilience and security of the critical digital infrastructure that underpins these technologies.
