MAAIA, a global real estate developer renowned for its European-inspired craftsmanship, has announced plans to bring over AED5 billion ($1.36 billion) in sales to the UAE real estate market in 2025.
The announcement was made at an event held at Atlantis, The Royal, where two of the developer's latest residential projects in Dubai were unveiled — La Vue in Nad Al Sheba Gardens and La Clé in Al Furjan. These flagship projects follow the recent success of MAAIA's Le Jardin development in Abu Dhabi - which achieved a complete sell-out during its concept phase.
La Vue and La Cle precede MAAIA's upcoming mega project of building a master community in Dubai's Falcon City this year. With all these projects, this year MAAIA will develop 2 million sq ft of GFA. Over the next three years MAAIA plans to roll out nearly 5000 units, with a development pipeline of over AED10 billion.
With over 15 years of luxury development expertise across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, MAAIA continues to set new benchmarks in creating exceptional living experiences that blend architectural innovation with human-centric design.
"The UAE is an incredibly important market for us, and we are proud to grow with the country's unparalleled real estate landscape,' says Mohammed Imran, Founder & Chairman of MAAIA. 'We have earmarked substantial investment and mega plans for our business over the next three years, during which we anticipate the UAE real estate sector will continue its upward trajectory.'
La Clé by MAAIA, located in the vibrant community of Al Furjan, offers a sophisticated collection of one-, two- and three-bedroom residences that harmoniously blend modern aesthetics with nature. Designed to invite the outdoors in, the residences are adorned with premium finishes, contemporary layouts, and serene surroundings. La Clé also offers a selection of apartments with private pools, which is a unique offering in the locality. La Clé will offer 56 apartments with prices starting at AED1,081,000. The project is set for completion in Q4 2026.private pool apartments
La Vue by MAAIA is the latest addition to the developer's residential portfolio and is now officially on sale.

The development offers some of the most stunning views of green expanse as well as of an iconic city skyline. La Vue brings a refined lifestyle experience, featuring luxurious swimming pools, tranquil zen gardens with outdoor seating, and dedicated fitness areas for both casual and athletic pursuits. With seamless access to Dubai's top attractions and a rare access to apartment living in Nad Al Sheba Gardens, La Vue is set to become one of the city's most sought-after residential addresses.

Emirates Adds 5th China Route Daily Dubai-Hangzhou Flights

Dubai-based carrier Emirates officially launched its new daily service to Hangzhou, China. This would be the 5th route to the Chinese mainland and the second new destination added to the airline's roster in under a month, following Shenzhen. The launch took place on 30th July with a debut flight from Dubai to Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport. Passengers aboard the new flight EK310 were welcomed by local dignitaries, airport officials, a ceremonial water cannon salute and received memorabilia from the airport. The inaugural flight carried passengers from across Emirates' global network, including key markets like the UAE, Nigeria, Italy, Spain, Saudi Arabia, and Brazil, as well as a VIP delegation led by Emirates' senior management and members of the international media. 'China has become one of the world's leading aviation markets, and Emirates is proud to have played a role in its development. Adding two new gateways within just one month is a major milestone that underscores our deepening commitment to the Chinese mainland,' said Adnan Kazim, Emirates' Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer, regarding the launch. Kazim explained that the expansion demonstrated the conviction of the company's East and Southeast Asia growth strategy, which has gained momentum over the past year. With rising demand, Kazim is optimistic that its global network will continue connecting people, businesses, and economies across Asia and beyond. Emirates remains committed to delivering seamless, reliable connectivity between this dynamic region and the world. 'We extend our sincere appreciation to the Civil Aviation Administration of China, Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, and all our local partners for their invaluable support in enabling the successful start of this route,' said Kazim. The Emirates Boeing 777-300ER (EK310) is scheduled to depart Dubai at 09:40 AM and arrive in Hangzhou at 22:00 PM. The return flight, EK311, departs Hangzhou at 00:10 AM, landing in Dubai at 04:55 AM. Emirates is said to offer optimal connectivity for customers from 40 destinations in Europe, 21 in Africa, 13 in the Middle East, as well as Brazil and Argentina, to Hangzhou via Dubai. The airline also offers convenient two-way connections from Hangzhou to key cities including ​Istanbul, Barcelona, Cairo, and Johannesburg via Dubai. The Boeing 777-300ER wide-body aircraft is said to offer up to 16 tonnes of bellyhold cargo capacity per flight, enabling the transport of time-sensitive shipments such as e-commerce goods, pharmaceuticals, smart devices, and other high-value products. With a well-defined digital infrastructure in place, Hangzhou serves as a key international gateway for Chinese brands. With Emirates SkyCargo's expansive network spanning six continents and high-speed connectivity through its Dubai hub, goods from Hangzhou and the broader Yangtze River Delta can reach emerging markets in the Middle East, Africa, South Asia, and Latin America faster, reducing delivery timelines and enhancing supply chain performance. Emirates now operates 49 weekly flights to five major Chinese cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Hangzhou. Its signature complimentary chauffeur-drive service for First and Business Class passengers is also available to passengers flying to Hangzhou. With the addition of Hangzhou to its growing Chinese mainland network, Emirates is building a powerful air corridor for trade, tourism, and digital exchanges between China and the Middle East, as well as beyond. The new route will further open new opportunities for Chinese brands to reach a global audience while offering customers from across Emirates' global network better access to this powerful tech hub. Through interline and codeshare agreements with China Southern Airlines, Air China and Sichuan Airlines, Emirates provides enhanced connectivity to destinations beyond its network across China. Travellers from the UAE and other GCC countries can visit China visa-free for up to 30 days, making both business and leisure travel to the Chinese mainland even more convenient.

Saudi EV Buyers Have Tesla As Choice - How Soon Before More Chinese Brands Join In?

More Saudi car buyers are in the mood to give EVs a chance with more dealerships in the Kingdom set to announce tie ups with leading Chinese carmakers to speed up the process. After what seems like a long gestation period, Tesla finally opened its first outlet in April, while Saudi-backed luxury EV brand Lucid Motors has done some of the preparatory work in creating a conducive environment for non-fuel automotive options. But as happened in UAE, a range of Chinese-made EVs are set to be introduced in the Gulf's biggest car market over the coming months. (In the UAE, more than 10 Chinese EV brands made their debut starting late 2023/early 2024 and until now, and many of them have started to pick up buyer backing for them.) By end 2024, new car registrations of EVs in the UAE made up around 4%-5%, according to estimates – in Saudi Arabia, it was 1% of new car sales. 'Saudi banks are starting to offer favourable EV auto financing options, and dealers are working with insurers to come up with buyer-friendly packages,' said a dealer source. 'The UAE auto market created the blueprint to launch and push new EV brands. It can easily be replicated in a market like Saudi Arabia.' The Saudi car market is expected to account for 600,000 plus units a year by the end of the decade. If EV sales can make up 10%-15% by then, the game is on, say auto analysts. 'The EV penetration in Saudi Arabia is relatively low compared to UAE,' said Vishal Pandey, Director of Dubai-based Glasgow Consultancy Group. 'However, given the emphasis from Saudi Government on electrification, there is high likelihood that growth is going to be faster. 'There is still a perception issue among Saudi consumers in regards to EVs, as they are concerned about the high cost of acquisition, charging infrastructure, and the after-market service. Plus, there is also the resale value.'
