Ministry of Economy awards second collective music management licence to Music Nation
The UAE Ministry of Economy granted its second collective music management licence to 'Music Nation' during a ceremony held at its headquarters in Dubai. The licence authorises the organisation to manage the distribution of rights on behalf of music creators and performers, while also ensuring nationwide compliance among music platforms. The announcement was made during an event attended by Abdullah Ahmed Al Saleh, Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Economy, and Dr. Abdulrahman Hassan Al Muaini, Assistant Under-Secretary for Intellectual Property. The Ministry confirmed that the licence was issued in accordance with Federal Decree-Law No. 38 of 2021 concerning copyright and related rights. It marks the continuation of the Ministry's efforts to strengthen intellectual property frameworks in the UAE, following the first collective management licence awarded to the Emirates Music Rights Association in April 2025. Al Saleh said, 'Under the vision of our wise leadership, the UAE has placed strategic emphasis on enhancing the competitiveness of its cultural and creative industries, driving their growth both regionally and globally. Recognising their vital role in national economic growth, we are committed to fostering public-private collaboration to cultivate an enabling environment for talent and innovation. By elevating the creative economy's legislative framework to world-class standards, we aim to expand the private sector's participation in it, in line with the National Strategy for Cultural and Creative Industries 2031.' The Under-Secretary said in his speech, 'The Ministry remains committed to establishing a world-class copyright governance system, drawing on international best practices. We are achieving this through strengthening legal and regulatory frameworks, fostering investment in creative sectors, and implementing robust collective management systems. These measures safeguard intellectual property rights while building creators' trust in the nation's creative ecosystem.' 'The collective music management licence serves as a catalyst for cultural innovation while safeguarding artists' intellectual property rights. Through establishing transparent revenue distribution systems and fair compensation mechanisms, it elevates the UAE's music industry - enhancing its global competitiveness and positioning our nation as a premier hub for creative enterprises,' he added. Al Saleh emphasised that awarding the licence to 'Music Nation' marks a strategic milestone in the UAE's commitment to fostering creativity. The initiative unlocks new opportunities for artists, writers, and producers while strengthening rights protection and leveraging creative-economy tools - ultimately positioning the sector as a key driver of national economic growth. Dr. Abdulrahman Hassan Al Muaini said, 'Our music industry is witnessing remarkable growth, fuelled by an expanding ecosystem of creative enterprises and world-class events. Dubai alone boasts 350 live music venues, while the national streaming market generated US$841.9 million in 2024 - projected to nearly triple to $2.3 billion by 2030. To sustain this momentum, the Ministry of Economy is prioritising robust legislative frameworks that will further catalyse the creative economy and foster artistic innovation.' He added, 'Building on last month's inaugural licence granted to the Emirates Music Rights Association, today marks another significant milestone with the official authorisation of Music Nation. We are actively collaborating with local and global partners, including industry associations and legal experts, to share best practices that drive sector growth. In tandem, we're expanding awareness initiatives to ensure artists, composers, and producers fully leverage these licences to protect both their creative works and financial interests.' 'Today marks a pivotal moment for the UAE and Music Nation,' said Rasha Khalifa Al Mubarak, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors for Music Nation. 'After years of careful planning, Music Nation is positioned to become a cornerstone of music licensing, empowering the Emirates' vibrant creative industry. As an Emarati, I am honoured to establish a world-class music rights infrastructure that not only elevates local artists to greater heights, but also showcases our rich musical heritage and cultural traditions to the world. In partnership with industry leaders BMI and SoundExchange, our cutting-edge technology and services will protect music rights holders and propel the UAE's music economy to new frontiers.'

French Avenue unveils the Genesis Collection of perfumes
French Avenue, the contemporary luxury perfumery under the legacy of Fragrance World, has launched The Genesis Collection, developed over a period of 24 months. This new signature line aims to mark a bold new chapter in modern fragrance—where scent, identity and storytelling converge. The collection reimagines the way individuals experience and connect with fragrance. The Genesis Collection features twelve distinctive perfumes, each inspired by the constellations and designed to capture the unique spirit, traits and emotional essence of every individual. From earthy compositions that ground and soothe, to airy blends that uplift and energize, each fragrance is a unique expression of the cosmos. With artistry at its core, French Avenue has created a line that goes beyond scent—it's a celebration of individuality and inner identity. Drawing inspiration from the vastness of the universe and the allure of astrological symbolism, Genesis transcends conventional perfumery. Each fragrance invites the wearer on a personal journey of self-discovery, offering more than a sensory experience—it offers a connection to something greater, something written in the stars. The collection was introduced at a private showcase in Dubai, where guests were immersed in a multi-sensory experience that reflected the celestial narrative of the collection. Attendees were invited to interact with an installation that guided them to their zodiac-aligned fragrance, providing a glimpse into the symbolic storytelling that underpins each scent. 'The Genesis Collection is more than a series of perfumes—it is the culmination of two years of passion, research and inspiration. We set out to create something that speaks to the soul, not just the senses. Each scent in Genesis is a tribute to individuality—rooted in craftsmanship, shaped by the stars, and made to resonate with the wearer on a deeply personal level. This is not just perfumery, it's a cosmic journey,' stated Poland Moosa Haji, Founder of Fragrance World. French Avenue continues to expand its global presence, backed by the enduring strength of its parent company, Fragrance World, which celebrates 35 years of excellence and a network of 132 distribution partners across 30 countries.
