Due in large part to establishment of the country’s financial free zones and other specialized economic zones, the UAE has emerged as a regional centre for MENA companies working in the technology, media, and telecommunications sectors. The UAE government has also been exceptionally proactive in modernizing its regulatory oversight of these fields in a manner designed to promote domestic business development and international investment. The UAE offers significant promise to those wanting to conduct business in technology, media, and telecommunications, but companies still need legal expertise to navigate regulatory requirements.
