Dubai has been named as the preferred hub for companies looking to expand their global operations. That’s according to a report by the Alliance Business Centres Network, which ranked the emirate as the number one choice of nearly a quarter of 300 firms polled in Asia, Europe and North America. Dubai beat the likes of Singapore, Hong Kong, New York and London to grab the top spot. Ease of doing business, infrastructure, funding options and competitive operating costs are some of the key factors working in Dubai’s favour.
