DMCC, the leading international business district that drives the flow of global trade through Dubai<\/a>, has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Tether, the largest company in the digital asset industry, to potentially deepen collaboration across blockchain infrastructure, digital assets and tokenised finance.<\/p>\n

The memorandum outlines a framework for collaboration to accelerate Tether\u2019s support for blockchain-based communication and payment infrastructure within DMCC, as well as advisory engagement related to tokenisation, crypto payments, blockchain applications, and digital asset settlements. The MoU establishes a defined pathway for both parties to become official ecosystem partners across relevant communication channels, websites, events, and publications.<\/p>\n

Under the framework, both organisations aim to collaborate on educational programmes, industry events, hackathons, and broader ecosystem engagement to support the continued growth of Dubai\u2019s digital asset sector and the development initiatives associated with the DMCC Crypto Centre. Tether intends to engage with DMCC’s community of more than 26,000 member companies through knowledge-sharing initiatives and potential member benefits.<\/p>\n

Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, DMCC, said:<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cGlobal trade is entering a new era where financial infrastructure, payments and asset ownership are increasingly moving onto digital rails. Stablecoins are already processing trillions of dollars in transaction value, while tokenisation is beginning to reshape how real-world assets are financed and transferred across borders. Dubai has acted early to establish the regulatory clarity and infrastructure needed to support this shift, and DMCC is playing a central role in connecting these technologies with global commerce. Through our agreement with Tether, we will explore new avenues for collaboration across blockchain infrastructure, digital payments and tokenisation, marking a further step in scaling innovation and strengthening Dubai\u2019s position at the centre of the global digital economy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Paolo Ardoino, CEO, Tether, said:<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cThe UAE<\/a> is actively shaping how digital asset infrastructure is adopted across global markets and integrated into real economic activity. By combining our expertise with DMCC\u2019s mission, we are focused on accelerating the practical use of blockchain technology across areas such as tokenization and education, and supporting the development of real-world applications, tools, and frameworks that enable broader participation in digital markets.\u201d<\/p>\n

DMCC continues to strengthen its position as one of the leading ecosystems for Web3 and emerging technologies. Today, DMCC is home to over 26,000 member companies, including more than 4,000 technology firms. This reflects DMCC\u2019s broader strategy to position Dubai as a leading global hub where commodities, capital and technologies converge. Through its specialised ecosystems spanning global commodities, technology and finance, DMCC continues to build the infrastructure and commercial connectivity required to support the future of international trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
