He added that more details of the Meydan project, which will be completed in the first quarter of 2026, will be shared soon.

"It is the government's ease of regulations and taxation and lifestyle that is attracting developers from Europe. Dubai has always shone because of lifestyle, safety and security infrastructure," he said.

Portugal's company is in talks with master developers in Dubai to secure more land. "The idea is not to come and make 1 or 2 developments and disappear; we have the vision to grow because Dubai, for us, is an amazing opportunity. It brings more people from around the world because of the luxury and services the market," said Ghosh.

For Swank, the unique selling point is its internal design, as it wants to bring a bit more openness in space and the utilisation of living spaces.

Moustafa Elsaid, head of sales of Swank Development, said Dubai's continuous growth as one of the happiest and safest cities in the world and its ability to attract investors from around the world pushes them to develop urban spaces that reflect the essence of personalised luxury.
