Meraas to become part of Dubai Holding

Dubai Media Office

Meraas will join Dubai Holding to further develop a highly diversified conglomerate operating in several sectors across real estate, tourism, hospitality, leisure and entertainment and investments.

It is based on the directive from His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai.

The latest move is set to combine a complementary suite of services and expertise to diversify the economy and maximise their competitiveness in the global marketplace.

Since its establishment in 2004, Dubai Holding has created positive strides aimed at fostering an innovation-driven knowledge-based economy.

It lists Jumeirah Group, Dubai Properties and TECOM Group among its portfolio. TECOM Group alone owns and operates ten sector-focused business clusters, with Dubai Internet City and Dubai Media City being the flagships.

Meanwhile, Meraas has launched several projects in multiple sectors including real estate, retail, hospitality, food and beverage, leisure and entertainment and healthcare.
