A LEGACY OF GROWTH
OUR STORY
Distinctive Achievements
For over two decades, we have strengthened Dubai’s competitiveness by building thriving communities, driving sustainable industries and powering its evolution into a global hub of innovation, talent and opportunity.
Reflecting the spirit of 'Dubai It', where ambition, excellence and execution come together to create lasting impact, our contribution goes beyond numbers. It lives in the opportunities we create, the communities we build and the lives we elevate. In partnership with global management consultancy firm Kearney, we developed a custom model to measure our economic, social and cultural impact across all our businesses and the sectors we reach.

For two decades, Dubai Holding has played a defining role in shaping the emirate’s remarkable transformation – creating the sectors, ecosystems and landmark destinations that define the city’s global standing. Our impact remains a catalyst for the region’s evolution, setting the pace for its development and powering its next era of growth.”
OUR JOURNEY
Dubai Holding’s impact reflects two decades of strategic investment in Dubai’s growth. To show how this contribution spans the economy, society and culture, we have distilled our data and insights into four themes that define the Group’s role in the city. Together, these themes reflect the interconnected impact of all Dubai Holding businesses.
Enabling Prosperity for All
Accelerating Dubai’s economic evolution, from foundational infrastructure to a mature, diversified economy.
Capital that Connects the World
Investing across diverse sectors and enabling industries that strengthen Dubai’s knowledge-based economy.
A Place to Call Home
Creating places where people belong and shaping vibrant, inclusive neighbourhoods and destination living experiences that elevate quality of life.
Experiences that Welcome the World
Enabling a cultural exchange of people and ideas across borders, exporting Dubai to the world and bringing the best of global markets and talent back to the city.
Guided by the UAE’s vision, we continue to build a resilient, inclusive and future-ready economy. Our legacy is defined not by what we build today, but by the lasting impact we create for Dubai, its people and For the Good of Tomorrow.
