Dubai’s Strategy to Attract Global Talent and Businesses

Dubai’s dynamic business environment, flexible visa policies, and strategic investments in world-class infrastructure have positioned it as a magnet for global talent. According to Kearney’s Global Cities Report, Dubai’s impressive 10-rank jump in the Innovation category reflects the emirate’s ongoing efforts to build a forward-thinking ecosystem that supports foreign investments and ambitious projects across sectors, especially real estate.

Similarly, in a previous report by Boston Consulting Group, Dubai was ranked as the third-best city to work globally, with Abu Dhabi closely following in fourth place.

UAE’s Focus on Innovation and Economic Growth

Dubai’s and Abu Dhabi’s focus on human capital, economic diversification, and infrastructure development is paying off. The UAE’s leadership has implemented progressive immigration policies aimed at attracting international talent, fueling the growth of diverse industries, and making the UAE a global leader in workforce accessibility. This, in turn, supports economic growth and strengthens Dubai’s position as a leading destination for both businesses and real estate investors.
