This centre is offering comprehensive support and actively gathering feedback to engage with businesses and provide step-by-step guidance for registration within ADGM.  The launch of the centre was followed by ADGM’s first community event on Al Reem Island. Over 500 representatives from diverse businesses based on Al Reem Island participated in the event. Additionally, officials from the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development (ADDED) and the Department of Municipalities and Transport – Abu Dhabi (DMT), were present to interact and engage with the attendees.  The community event provided a platform for ADGM to unveil a new incentive initiative tailored exclusively for businesses based on Al Reem Island, operating in non-financial and retail sectors. Under this incentive initiative, eligible businesses on the island will be relieved from any fees associated with acquiring an ADGM commercial licence until October 31, 2024. This proactive measure is designed to facilitate a seamless transition for these businesses, allowing them to sustain their operations without additional financial obligations as they transition from being an ADDED licensed entity to an ADGM one.
