He remarked that the event aims to unlock smarter solutions that drive efficiency and enhance living and working spaces. Younane looks forward to hearing from entrepreneurs who are shaping the future of property through innovative ideas and transformative tools.

The Dtec Forum will delve into Dubai’s aspirations to become a global hub for real estate innovation and how it is nurturing its Proptech sector. This initiative is aligned with the Dubai Real Estate Sector Strategy 2033, which aims to boost transactions, attract international investors, and establish Dubai as a premier property investment destination. The event also supports the Dubai Digital Strategy, which seeks to digitalize various aspects of life in the city.
