Business Bay Dubai, just like its name implies, is one of the many business and commercial
centres in Dubai that boast of numerous modern skyscrapers, international businesses, and
recreational areas that promote and enhance comfort and luxury living in Dubai. It is also
usually referred to as the Manhattan or Ginza of the UAE as one of the country’s prime
commercial centres.
The district was established in response to high demand and competition for construction of
commercial, residential, and office space among various local and international business owners.
The high demand could not be sufficiently met by the former regulations. Now, this area features
world class residential areas, hotels, roads, landscaped parks, recreational areas, and
commercial and business establishments.
It consists of modern and fashionable landmarks such as Bay Square which features restaurants,
cafes, retail stores, office space, hotels, residential buildings, small and medium-sized
businesses; Executive Towers which feature residential, commercial and office towers; and Bay
Avenue which is dotted with recreational areas such as theatres, amusement parks, resorts and
entertainments centres. The famous Dubai Creek extension, the embodiment of Dubai’s progress,
can also be found there. This helped transform Dubai from a fishing and pearl cultivation
community into one of the world’s most important trading posts.
Progressive communities such as the Dubai Internet City, the Dubai Media City, and others that
are still in the pipeline have become crucial for the development of Dubai as an important
international commercial and business centre.
With over 240 buildings both completed and planned, it is an ideal location for investing and
setting up businesses. Its close proximity to prestigious districts such as Freehold areas, the
Dubai International Finance Centre, and even the Burj Khalifa makes it a financial and business
hotspot. This area has a number of businesses competing for local and international client
visibility, office space, and residential and building opportunities
