“Global trade is entering a new era where financial infrastructure, payments, and asset ownership are increasingly moving onto digital rails. Stablecoins are already processing trillions of dollars in transaction value, while tokenization is beginning to reshape how real-world assets are financed and transferred across borders. Dubai has acted early to establish the regulatory clarity and infrastructure needed to support this shift, and DMCC is playing a central role in connecting these technologies with global commerce. Through our memorandum with Tether, we aim to explore new avenues for potential collaboration across blockchain infrastructure, digital payments, and tokenization, marking a further step in scaling innovation and strengthening Dubai’s position at the centre of the global digital economy.”
Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, said that, “The UAE is actively shaping how digital asset infrastructure is used across global markets and integrated into real economic activity. Through our collaboration with DMCC, we aim to accelerate the practical use of blockchain technology in areas such as tokenization and education. Our goal is to support the development of real-world applications, tools, and frameworks that expand participation in digital markets.”
