New Dubai Holding Headquarters: A Future-Forward Workspace
Scheduled to open by 2029, Dubai Holding’s new headquarters will consolidate the group’s operations under one innovative roof.

Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Holding, highlighted the project’s alignment with Dubai’s strategic vision, stating, “Dubai’s success has been built on a clear vision for the future, the confidence to invest with purpose and the discipline to turn ambition into progress.”
Jumeirah Residences Emirates Towers: Distinctive Luxury Living
Alongside the headquarters, the contract also accelerates Meraas’ flagship residential venture, Jumeirah Residences Emirates Towers. This development will deliver 754 branded units spread across two elegantly designed towers by SCDA Architects. Slated for handover in 2030, the project blends contemporary architecture with Jumeirah’s renowned Arabian hospitality.
Residents will enjoy exclusive lifestyle, wellness, and leisure amenities, with seamless access to Dubai’s key business and cultural hubs, enhancing the city’s luxury residential market.
