UAE Ranks #1 in Global Entrepreneurship for the Fourth Time

 The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has once again topped the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) Report 2024/2025, securing its position as the best country for entrepreneurship among 56 global economies. This remarkable achievement marks the fourth consecutive year that the UAE has ranked first, reinforcing its commitment to fostering a thriving business ecosystem.

Why the UAE is a Global Leader in Business

The UAE has positioned itself as a prime destination for startups, entrepreneurs, and SMEs. With a streamlined business setup process, entrepreneurs can obtain a business license in just 15 minutes through the Bashar platform.

The country’s free zones provide additional incentives, offering 100% foreign ownership, tax benefits, and simplified registration processes, without requiring a local sponsor. Furthermore, the UAE is known for its pro-business policies, skilled workforce, and advanced infrastructure, making it a highly attractive market for investors.

Key Factors Behind the UAE’s Success

The GEM Report 2024/2025 highlights several critical areas where the UAE outperforms other nations:

📌 Strong access to entrepreneurial finance
📌 Ease of funding & investment opportunities
📌 Government policies that support businesses
📌 Favorable tax laws & reduced bureaucracy
📌 High-quality entrepreneurship education
📌 Efficient commercial infrastructure
📌 Minimal regulatory burdens for startups
📌 A culture that encourages business growth

These factors have contributed to the UAE’s ability to create an entrepreneurship-friendly environment, helping new businesses flourish.

A Nation Committed to Entrepreneurship Growth

One of the most impressive aspects of the UAE’s entrepreneurship ecosystem is its high level of ambition and confidence among local entrepreneurs. According to the report, 70% of Emiratis recognize strong business opportunities, and many startups are actively expanding their workforce.

Additionally, the UAE has claimed the #1 spot in the National Entrepreneurship Context Index (NECI), a measure of how well a country supports startups and small businesses based on expert assessments.

With progressive policies, world-class infrastructure, and an unwavering focus on business growth, the UAE continues to pave the way as a global leader in entrepreneurship and innovation.

For aspiring entrepreneurs and investors, the UAE remains one of the best places to launch and grow a business in the world.

Exposing the Brotherhood: Why Jordan’s Terror Cell Bust Must Spark a Global Policy Shift

 The recent dismantling of a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated terror cell in Jordan should not be seen as just a national security success—it must be a turning point in how the international community views and responds to the threat posed by the Brotherhood. Jordanian security forces uncovered an elaborate network of terrorists trained in Lebanon and backed by foreign interests. Their mission: to launch attacks using rockets and drones, destabilizing the Kingdom and spreading fear among civilians.

But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...
