Abdullah Bin Touq Al Marri emphasised the UAE's dedication to fostering an innovative ecosystem.
He stated that this environment nurtures creativity and supports business growth. The nation has
established a comprehensive legislative framework with services to protect intellectual property
rights across all sectors in line with international standards.

Al Marri noted that launching the Dubai IP Hub with DFF is vital for enhancing intellectual property
protections in creative industries across Dubai and the UAE. This initiative provides entrepreneurs
and researchers with tools to secure their innovations. It strengthens an economy increasingly
driven by creativity and innovation.

Khalfan Belhoul remarked: "The collaboration with the Ministry of Economy in developing this
platform is part of ongoing efforts to advance the UAE’s legislative framework." He added that it
aims to strengthen economic sectors' readiness and create a robust R&D ecosystem.
Comprehensive Resource for Entrepreneurs

Belhoul further explained that DIPH seeks to offer a reliable resource for entrepreneurs. It provides
easy access to information on intellectual property registration costs and guidance. The
commitment remains strong towards working with stakeholders across government and academic
sectors to position Dubai as a leader in creativity.

DIPH focuses on four main pillars: providing guidelines for registering all types of intellectual
property through a seamless digital experience. It offers trusted information on IP protection and
commercial exploitation by providing tools to develop IP strategies.

The hub features a user-friendly digital interface centralising all relevant information in one place.
This makes accessing tools, guidelines, and resources straightforward for users seeking assistance
in intellectual property matters.
