Video Transcript: A Remarkable Year for TECOM Group

This is a true story. It’s a mastery of how we acted on our leader's vision and helped revolutionize the city of Dubai. Our vision is to be the world-renowned curator of innovative ecosystems, and our mission is to realize Dubai's economic aspirations by creating sector-focused communities and thriving work environments that enable business success.

TECOM Group has been a major catalyst in Dubai's development and growth into a knowledge economy, and is now a front-runner in delivering the government's innovation strategy as well as Dubai's 2021 plan. We are the developers and operators of eleven business communities, home to 5,100 business partners, and a workforce of 76,000 across seven industries, including ICT, media, education, science, design, manufacturing, and trade.

In 1999, Dubai Internet City was launched, writing a whole new chapter in Dubai's information technology industry and the knowledge economy. 364 days later, the site was open for business. We saw more opportunities to support Dubai's ever-growing business needs by launching Dubai Outsourced City in 2004. In November 2000, Dubai Media City was launched and is now the region's leading media hub.

We committed to establishing Dubai Production City in 2004 for the media production community.

Dubai's geocentric location and unrivaled cargo infrastructure makes key markets, whether they are north, south, east, or west, easily accessible by air, land, or sea.

In 2013, in5 was born, our business innovation platform offering incubation centers across any industry sector. Launched in 2014, Axis is TECOM Group's business partners' services portal and allows users to confidently keep track of faster government, employee, and corporate services. In 2014, we continued our focus on building an innovation-driven economy and stimulating creativity with the announcement of the Innovation Hub.

All of our 11 business communities are ideally located across Dubai. We developed communities tailored to the needs of industry sectors to enable activities across the entire value chain. We deliver the right mix of commercial space and industry-specific products alongside ample provision of residential, retail, hospitality, healthcare, and education. We spearheaded Dubai's transformation and diversification by welcoming thousands of new businesses from all over the world - startups, SMEs, and micro SMEs, and Fortune 500 global brands.
