Dubai is offering content creators the ultimate launchpad, providing an environment to live, work, and create content without stressing about relocation, workspace or a long-term residency visa.
The newly launched Creators HQ is an incubation hub designed to help creative individuals expand their global reach. This pioneering initiative empowers creators to amplify their impact and build sustainable pathways for success in the ever-growing creator economy.
The programme targets diverse talent, including social media influencers, digital content creators, podcasters, and visual artists. It also aims to attract key players in the creative industries, such as advertising and marketing firms, media and music producers, animation studios, and fashion and lifestyle brands.
“Our main aim is for global content creators to gather in the UAE, where they will find support and connect to funding and investors so they can innovate and expand their reach,” Mohammad Al Gergawi, Minister of Cabinet Affairs, said during the launch.
“It’s a step forward in professionalising the creator economy in Dubai and the region,” said Dubai-based content creator Anil Lobo, calling the HQ a “much-needed platform” for regional creators.
