DUBAI / Emirates Business
A unique world-class pioneering project to facilitate and support the growth of local and international entrepreneurs and position the UAE as a leading light in global business innovation is being brought forward by Al Ahli Holding Group.
The Dubai-based multi-diversified conglomerate is behind Nomad, a highly ambitious one million square foot entrepreneur and media hub which will be developed close to The Echo Plex (off Al
Ain Road), and which, as a global prototype, is set to radically change the entrepreneurial landscape.
It will support global citizens and foster international talent with equal opportunities, providing commercial viability for their careers.
The multi-faceted and all-inclusive incubator and accelerator model will focus on growing, incubating and funding talent. As well as flexible office and working spaces, the world-class development will comprise state of the art studios and makerspaces within the media, culinary arts, arts and design, and gaming and technology arenas; with one of the largest 3D printing facilities globally.
A true differentiator from other business facilitators, it will also boast subsidised co-living arrangements, thereby enabling members to live economically while focussing their efforts on business growth.
This has particular relevance for people who appreciate the UAE as the ideal country in which to work and live, but for whom the costs inherent in doing so, are a vital consideration.
It will enable SMEs and talented start-ups, from home and abroad, to develop and nurture their businesses supported by a business and legal framework.
Operating costs will be significantly reduced, thereby attracting the international business community, and sources of innovation to the UAE. Members will also see their businesses boosted by access to Al Ahli Holding Group’s extensive network of partners and consultants, many of which are in the entertainment and media industries.
The ambitious project will make a very positive contribution to fulfilling the “Vision 2021†directive to create a competitive knowledge economy in the UAE by the year 2021.
It also further advances the agenda created by Al Ahli Holding Group to foster creative entrepreneurship and innovation within the UAE.
