The Nasdaq Dubai Growth Market will make it easier and cheaper for rapidly expanding businesses to be listed on the international exchange serving the Middle East and North Africa. The Growth Market, which is part of Dubai’s Future District, will provide a platform for enterprises from all over the globe to list themselves and get exposure in the UAE and beyond.

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Dubai, inaugurated the Dubai Future District plans, which this step is a part of. The historic programme is geared on assisting startups and SMEs in entering the next stage of growth by means of an IPO.
