as a strategic partner reflects our ongoing commitment to empowering the real estate sector by
establishing effective channels of communication between all stakeholders. IPS serves as a
strategic platform that brings together leading players in real estate to showcase innovative
solutions and smart technologies that contribute to the growth of sustainable cities. The strong
participation from international entities reflects the high level of confidence in Dubai’s investment
landscape and reinforces our goals to enhance transparency and market attractiveness.”

He further emphasised the alignment of IPS 2025 with the Dubai Real Estate Sector Strategy 2033,
highlighting its role in positioning the emirate as a globally competitive and future-ready real estate
destination.

A Comprehensive Government Vision to Strengthen Dubai’s Global Real Estate Leadership:
Dubai Land Department’s stand at the exhibition represents an integrated model for unifying the
efforts of government entities involved in the development and governance of the real estate
ecosystem. It brings together Dubai Municipality and the Dubai Rental Disputes Center under a
unified vision to support the sustainable development of the sector. Through its participation, DLD
showcases a selection of its pioneering strategic initiatives recently launched to achieve the
objectives of the Dubai Real Estate Sector Strategy 2033, the Dubai Economic Agenda D33, the
Dubai Social Agenda 33, and the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, thereby reinforcing the emirate’s
leadership as a global capital for real estate innovation and the world’s top investment destination.

These initiatives include: the ‘Real Estate i’ promotional initiative, which enhances the global
visibility of Dubai’s real estate sector through strategic partnerships with leading developers; ’She
Pioneers’ which aims to strengthen women’s roles and contributions to the sustainability of the real
estate market; and the ‘Real Estate Tokenisation Project,’ positioning Dubai as the first entity in the
Middle East to adopt blockchain technologies in property registration.

The stand also highlights the ‘Tayseer’ initiative, designed to activate owners’ committees and
promote transparency in jointly owned properties, and the ‘Tamkeen’ programme, which attracts
and empowers Emirati talent to lead the future of the real estate sector. Additionally, the ‘Dubai
Real Estate Broker Programme’ expands Emiratisation opportunities within real estate brokerage.

Other initiatives include the Real Estate Investment Trusts (REIT), which aims to attract local and
international real estate investment funds; the ‘Freehold Ownership’ initiative, allowing the
conversion of 457 plots in Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Jaddaf into freehold properties for all
nationalities—boosting property value and attracting new investor segments; the ‘Strata
Registration’ initiative, which increases ownership options for Emiratis; and the ‘Real Estate
Advertising Governance Platform’, powered by AI to ensure compliance and transparency.

Finally, the ‘Real Estate Evolution Space (REES)’, initiative serves as a cutting-edge platform
designed to accelerate digital transformation and solidify Dubai’s position on the global map of
Proptech technology and AI-driven real estate solutions.
