. The initiative aims to attract digitally enabled businesses from all over the world and provide them with the necessary market entry fundamentals needed to launch and scale from within the UAE.

Building on the UAE’s global position as a leading business, investment, and innovation hub, NextGenFDI will support the growth of the nation’s knowledge-driven economy, by enabling rapid incorporation processes to speed up licensing; facilitating the issuance of bulk or golden visas; accelerating banking services; and providing commercial and residential lease incentives for advanced technology companies seeking to relocate to the UAE.

The initiative will continue to adopt a wide array of measures in phases to make the market entry process simpler and more efficient for companies.
