With the fifth largest economy in the middle east after Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Egypt, a gross domestic product (GDP) of $501 billion (AED 1.84 trillion) in 2022, and a metaverse strategy that will add 40,000 jobs and $4 billion to the economy in five years, Dubai poses a lucrative business hub for growing organisations across the globe.

The strategic move is inspired by the multinational agency’s dedication to advancing global efforts to actualise Africa’s potential as an economic powerhouse while encouraging global investments into the high-value markets through unique operation models.

With the robust growth Dubai has experienced since the pandemic first hit in 2019, X3M Ideas joins over 45,000 newly licenses businesses in Dubai from January to June this year, an annual jump of almost 25 per cent, reflecting strong business sentiment.

Founder of X3M Ideas, Steve Babaeko said: “It is no longer possible to ignore the potential the United Arab Emirates possesses for businesses.
