Technology hub Dubai Internet City has entered a strategic partnership with India’s National Association of Software and Service Companies (Nasscom) to drive technological innovation and foster cross-border talent development on the sidelines of GITEX Global, which was held at Dubai World Trade Centre.

Dubai Internet City, one of TECOM Group PJSC’s 10 vibrant sector-specific business districts in the city, will offer support and guidance to Nasscom members navigating the process of establishing a presence within its business community, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience to start and set up business operations.

“Our partnership with Nasscom empowers the next generation of entrepreneurs and innovators to build upon the UAE’s and India’s shared success story,” said Ammar Al Malik, executive vice president of commercial at TECOM Group PJSC and managing director of Dubai Internet City.

“Dubai Internet City’s collaboration with Nasscom is a testament to the legacy and uniquely entrepreneurial spirit that has defined bilateral ties between both our nations over five decades. This partnership will facilitate knowledge sharing and provide access to Dubai’s dynamic technology ecosystem, enriched by visionary roadmaps such as Dubai Economic Agenda ‘D33’.”

Shivendra Singh, vice president and head of global trade at Nasscom, said: “This agreement is a pivotal step in accelerating market access for Indian tech companies in the Middle East, a region we view as a critical growth driver for our industry. Our strategic partnership with Dubai Internet City will fast-track go-to-market strategies, enabling our members to scale rapidly, seize new opportunities, and drive transformative growth. The Middle East’s dynamic ecosystem offers immense potential for innovation, and this collaboration reinforces our commitment to harnessing that potential and building a strong foundation for future success.”

The strategic partnership offers a range of benefits to Nasscom member companies looking to expand their presence, including collaboration opportunities with Dubai Internet City’s vibrant community of more than 3,500 customers, including multinational corporations, start-ups, Fortune 500 companies, and tech giants such as Microsoft, Google, and Nvidia, in addition to more than 29,000 professionals.

Acknowledging the power of a globally connected technology ecosystem, Dubai Internet City and Nasscom, India’s premier trade body for the technology industry with more than 3,000 member companies, will explore opportunities to support joint research and development projects to drive innovation and create globally impactful technological solutions. Nasscom’s business community will also receive access to Dubai Internet City’s workshops, as well as the world-class D/Quarters co-working spaces by TECOM Group at the heart of Dubai Internet City and Dubai Media City. 

The strategic partnership was agreed during GITEX Global, the world’s largest technology event where Dubai Internet City is participating as Knowledge Partner to showcase industry champions that are shaping the future through AI-led innovation.
