News DeskDubai, UAE: A new global webcast series aimed at promoting inward investment into the UAE, One Way Ticket to Dubai, was unveiled on Tuesday, positioning itself as a platform to attract investors, entrepreneurs, professionals and business leaders to the country.
The Globecast series, the first of its kind in the Middle East, comes at a time when the UAE’s real estate and investment sectors continue to post strong growth. Dubai’s real estate sector alone generated Dh3.6 trillion in transactions over the past seven years, averaging more than $100 billion annually in sales and mortgages.
So far this year, real estate transaction values have exceeded Dh8.4 billion ($219 billion), underlining the emirate’s sustained appeal among foreign high-net-worth individuals.
Produced in eight languages, including English, Arabic, Chinese, Hindi, Russian, Farsi and Urdu, One Way Ticket to Dubai aims to broaden global outreach and support higher levels of foreign direct investment (FDI). UAE FDI rose 48 per cent to $45.6 billion (Dh167.6 billion) last year, placing the country among the world’s top 10 FDI destinations.
The growth has been driven by multiple sectors, including wholesale and retail trade, real estate and financial services.
Dubai alone attracted an estimated Dh40.4 billion ($11 billion) in FDI, marking a 62 per cent increase year-on-year. The number of FDI projects rose 28.7 per cent in the first half of 2025 to 1,090, creating more than 38,000 jobs, with financial services, IT, consumer products and food and beverages among the leading sectors.
“One Way Ticket to Dubai represents a revolutionary approach to real estate market communication, the first of its kind globally,” said Binesh Babu Panicker, Founder and Co-Founder of Voxx Bridge Production.
“It is designed to showcase Dubai’s real estate strengths, address misconceptions and highlight regulatory excellence, transparency and global connectivity through authentic storytelling.”
The initiative also aligns with the UAE’s strong capital markets performance. The Dubai Financial Market (DFM) recorded around Dh107 billion in traded value in 2024, while its market capitalisation rose 32 per cent to Dh907 billion. Combined market capitalisation of the Dubai and Abu Dhabi stock markets surpassed Dh3.9 trillion by the end of 2024.
Yafea Al Faraj, real estate expert and advisory board member of the series, said the UAE’s positioning as a global hub for business and lifestyle makes it uniquely attractive to investors.
“One Way Ticket to Dubai will create greater awareness among global investors about opportunities for investing and resettling in the UAE,” he said.
The project also taps into the rapid growth of podcast and digital audio consumption. Global revenue from music, radio and podcasts is projected to reach $125.86 billion in 2025, according to Statista. The GCC region shows particularly strong engagement, with over 50 per cent of adults in the UAE listening to podcasts for more than an hour per week.
The series is supported by Feesable Technologies, a Dubai-based fintech startup providing embedded finance and debt capital management solutions to the real estate sector.
“This initiative tells the story of the diverse people behind Dubai’s growth,” said Ali Yaakub, Founder and CEO of Feesable. “Access to data and information is key to helping investors and brokers make informed decisions.”
One Way Ticket to Dubai is being developed by Voxx Bridge Production, a UAE-based media production house focused on premium, globally resonant storytelling that blends editorial insight with commercial content for international audiences.
