The U.A.E. is one of the Middle East’s most technologically advanced nations and also one of the world’s strongest economies with USD $1 trillion in foreign invested assets. Its growth is driven by its natural resource exports as well as its investment in infrastructure. Premium domains like Gas.com, Oil.com, Energy.com, AbuDhabi.com and Dubai.com fit the region’s high profile as a world economic leader.
“There is no question that the U.A.E. is iconic on the global scale for its unprecedented growth, innovation and expansion. Naturally, that expansion has precipitated a crossover into global business opportunities – and at the global level domain names can be the catalyst for exposure to either the country or businesses operating in it to the global business community,” Domain Holdings co-founder John Ferber said. Ferber was the co-founder of Advertising.com – which sold to AOL in 2006 for nearly USD $500 million and eventually became cornerstone for America Online’s AOL Advertising business. “There is only one Dubai and there is also only one Dubai.com.”
