DUBAI United Arab Emirates
Home to the region's fastest paced and most rapidly evolving economy, Dubai has embarked on ambitious projects to diversify the city's economy, allowing it to become an oasis of prosperity in just a few years. Historically it is the trading hub and the informal capital of the region; Dubai has grown over three decades from a small creek-side city to a cosmopolitan city of international dimensions and global economic impact. It is no surprise that the city is expanding into the ocean, with floating cities offering the very best of living experiences to thousands of expatriates that come to Dubai every year in pursuit of career growth and a life of luxury.
Business Dubai is the second largest emirate in the UAE. Its multi-cultural million-strong population hails from 30 nations, and is approximately 80% expatriate. The city is located midway between the Far East and Europe. Hundreds of shipping lines and airlines connect the city with over 150 global destinations. Given its proximity and accessibility to the rest of the region, Dubai is also a major international business centre where multinational companies are increasingly establishing their operations. Leading technology companies like Microsoft, Ericsson, IBM, and media players such as CNN, CNBC and BBC have established operations in the city's free trade zones areas of Internet City and Media City - where Delta Partners is established.
Living Whilst the population grows at full speed, the city is constantly striving to provide its residents with superb accommodation and state-of-the-art services. Home to the Burj Al Arab, floating like a ship on waves of golden sand, Dubai offers not just impeccable 5-star hotel accommodation, but also restaurants run by internationally acclaimed chefs, fashionable bars and clubs, breathtaking sandy beaches, and a vast number of venues for sport and other leisure activities. Modern apartment buildings and stylish villas are transforming Dubai's skyline. Services like power, telecommunications, education, and healthcare are equivalent to the very best in the world. Dubai combines the best comforts of modern living, with traditional values. Dubai is also one of the safest cities in the world, with extremely low crime rates.
