A Word from the CEO
There is great potential to expand projects. Many eyes are focused on Al Marjan Island, not only from the UAE but from abroad, too. We noticed that there is demand from prestigious international hotel and hospitality brands in Al Marjan Island, and they are asking us to enhance the interaction with international stakeholders and investors in order to create partnerships with them. This way they can both benefit, whether it is as an international hotel brand or a foreign direct investor.
