Despite high initial costs, demand for Dubai business set up is driven by the emirate's economic success. This economic expansion has created a wealth of opportunities for global investors across a range of industries. Examples of successful industries over recent years have been construction and the services sector, which has become ever more diversified. The following is an overview of the core advantages of Dubai business set up.

| 2. | Strategic geographical situation - located in the Arabian Gulf, Dubai lies roughly half way between Europe and Asia. Dubai enjoys excellent communications links with other trading centres, and lies on important international air routes. | ||||||
| 3. | Sophisticated infrastructure - the Dubai government invests heavily in infrastructure such as telecommunications, airports, roads and ports, providing valuable support to investors choosing Dubai business set up.
