DIAMOND TIMES – In the first half of 2021, the DMCC welcomed 1,230 new members.
the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) recruited 1,230 new member firms in the first half of 2021, which is the “best 6-month performance since 2013.”The increase is based on the business district’s good performance in 2020, when it attracted 2,025 new enterprises “supported by DMCC’s relief packages supplied during the global pandemic,” according to the DMCC. Furthermore, the DDE (Dubai Diamond Exchange) has hosted 40 tenders since the beginning of 2021, a 60 percent increase over the same period last year.
“We have continued over the record-breaking performance of 2020 into 2021, with another set of very strong achievements across all our pillars,” stated Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman and CEO of the DMCC. The stats speak for themselves, and the second half of the year looks even more promising after the recent debut of the DMCC Crypto Centre, which has sparked tremendous interest from the global crypto community.” By the end of the year, Bin Sulayem wants the DMCC to have 20,000 members.
