Dubai Airport Free Zone (DAFZ) and du, announced a partnership deal to offer exclusive benefits to companies based in the free zone.
Under the agreement, DAFZ will promote du as a preferred communication service to new companies who register or lease office spaces or acquire commercial permits at the free zone.
The telecom company will provide DAFZ members a range of exclusive offers and privileges from essentials to luxuries from major brands in a diverse range of fields and sectors.
Besides, du will also act as a strategic partner for DAFZ’s ‘Hayak’ programme, which caters to more than 18,000 employees working in over 2,200 companies across 20 sectors that have their regional headquarters in the free zone.
The partnership, signed on the sidelines of GITEX 2022, will also see du provide a package of communications services to new businesses in the free zone to enable their faster establishment.
A client service centre, equipped with the most up-to-date communication technologies, including 5G will also be opened on the free zone’s premises.
Amna Lootah, Director-General of DAFZ, said the partnership will further contribute to enhancing the expertise and experience of employees in the Hayak programme, adding to DAFZ’s portfolio of exceptional facilities, incentives, and benefits.
Fahad Al Hassawi, CEO at du, said the company will offer a diverse and customised package of exclusive offers to companies based in the free zone to ensure that their business requirements are met.
Last year, the two signed a partnership agreement to automate licensing processes for obtaining no-objection certificates (NOCs) from other government entities in a single platform enabled through blockchain, making DAFZ the first free zone to provide this service.
The new agreement is also an extension of the free zone’s recent efforts to strengthen its network of partners in a number of countries around the world.
