Location description and benefits

Established in the year 2000, Dubai Media City (DMC) has grown into a regional hub for media companies. It is a community where freelancers, SMEs, start-ups and large enterprises co-exist. The integrated infrastructure has made it one of the most fertile grounds for the development of media industries, making a distinguished spot on the globe.

Dubai Media City is the reflection of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s vision as he wanted to transform Dubai into a knowledge-based society. Following his concept, it was designed to be the headquarters for global and local media houses. That being said, there are mostly offices and only a few apartments and villas for rent in the area as it was primarily intended to be a purely commercial territory in Dubai.

Media City is a heavily commercialised area with most buildings comprised of offices and commercial floors offered for rent. Despite, one will find a few apartments and villas and a wide range of hotel apartments since it is predominantly a business community.

There are over 1,500 companies in this primary commercial district including companies in the digital, publishing and electronic media sectors. The area is home to the offices of BBC, MBC, CNN, Forbes, Sony, Thomson Reuters, ITP Media Group and many more. Moreover, Dubai Media City accommodates over 20,000 employees also facilitating them with a wide range of restaurants, shops and entertainment points in reach.
