Identity Middle East has opened a new office in Ras Al
Khaimah (RAK), aimed at expanding the company’s operations and enhancing its
ability to serve clients across the Middle East.
The new office is part of
Identity’s broader strategy to strengthen its regional presence and support its
long-term growth objectives. The Ras Al Khaimah opening comes a year after Identity opened offices in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
Identity is a full-service live events agency with more than
20 years of experience delivering large-scale global events, including COP26,
the G7 and NATO Summits. Since its move to the UAE in 2023, the company has
delivered high-profile events such as COP28, the Dubai Business Forum for Dubai
Chambers, the AVPN Global Conference and the Capital Market Summit for Dubai
Financial Market.
Dr Ray Tinston, managing director of Identity Middle East, said:
“Ras Al Khaimah’s dynamic growth and strategic location make it an ideal base
for our operations. The Emirate’s strong commitment to sustainability aligns
perfectly with Identity’s core values, enabling us to better serve our clients
while contributing to sustainable development in the region.”
Ras Al Khaimah was selected for its strategic advantages,
including proximity to key markets, access to a skilled workforce and a
favourable business environment. In 2023, the Emirate recorded 1.22 million
overnight arrivals, with a 40 per cent increase in international visitors,
highlighting its appeal as a business and tourism destination.
The Emirate has also become a key hub for international
events, hosting significant conferences such as the Arab Aviation Summit, the
Pacific Asia Travel Association (PATA) Annual Summit and the World Tourism
Forum Lucerne Start-Up Innovation Summit. Additionally, Ras Al Khaimah’s
commitment to sustainability is reflected in its Silver Certification from
EarthCheck’s Sustainable Destinations, marking the first such recognition in
the Middle East.
The expansion into Ras Al Khaimah aligns with Identity
Middle East's long-term vision of growth and its commitment to supporting the
region's development, and comes
