Key Enablers for Success
DIEZ has identified critical factors to achieve its strategy, including developing synergies across economic zones, enhancing its global brand, ensuring strong financial performance, and embracing digital transformation. The authority also places a high value on building a united team, fueling passion, creating connections, prioritizing customer success, and fostering a futuristic vision.
Integrated Approach and Compelling Proposition
Comprising established free zones like Dubai Airport Free Zone, Dubai Silicon Oasis, and Dubai CommerCity, DIEZ employs an integrated approach to bolster the national economy. It sets an ideal model by offering a holistic experience with living, working, and leisure choices. DIEZ stands as a compelling proposition for investors, providing advanced systems for easy access to regional and international markets, backed by a global network and impressive logistical capabilities.
Conclusion
With the approval of the 2024-2026 strategy, DIEZ is poised to contribute significantly to Dubai's economic growth, adhering to the visionary directives of the leadership. The focus on innovation, sustainability, and investor-centric practices positions DIEZ as a key player in advancing Dubai's role as a global economic hub.
