Emaar, the global real estate developer of premium properties headquartered in Dubai, announced the grand opening of Emaar Café, located in the Fashion Avenue of The Dubai Mall. A pioneering concept from Emaar, the café offers an ideal environment for visitors to network, socialize and relax in a casual setting.

During the launch of the café, Emaar exchanged MoUs with various government entities including Dubai Land Department (DLD), Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), Department of Economic Development (DED) Dubai, Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM) and DMCC (Dubai Multi Commodities Centre) presenting a collaborative and innovative environment that allows visitors access to information and smart services offered by these authorities to live, work and invest in Dubai.

As part of this partnership, Dubai Land Department will provide informative services on home and land ownership registration services; Dubai International Financial Centre will support financial institutions, corporate and family offices looking to grow their business across the Middle East, Africa and South Asia (MEASA), by setting up in the region’s largest and most advanced financial ecosystem; the Department of Economic Development has installed a smart device at the café to assist visitors with business registration and licensing services such as the Instant License, Auto Renewal and DED Trader to the current and potential investors; Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing will promote Dubai’s tourism credentials to the visitors and DMCC will provide different facilities, services and benefits that appeal to various client segments and industries to set-up a business in Dubai’s leading and award-winning Free Zone.

Mohamed Alabbar, chairman of Emaar Properties, said: “Emaar has always believed in harnessing the strengths and abilities of different partners in our ecosystem to scale the innovation level and create better experiences for our consumers. At Emaar Café, we are striving to drive collaborative efforts with various government entities to deliver a seamless way for consumers to connect with our strategic partners.”
