Dubai, Dubai, Dubai — the glitzy city where you can flex for the ‘Gram with clean streets, safe neighbourhoods, and every luxury imaginable. But, under all this opulence, is there a darker side? Where's Shaz and I both agree that the city’s a mix of opportunity and excess — a business hub where entrepreneurs come to strike gold. You’ve got the skyscrapers and luxury cars that just scream ‘success.’  But it’s not all shiny; the service industry can be hit or miss, and there’s a lot of flash with little substance. Genuine connections can be challenging unless your bank account matches the scene. Still, the networking opportunities are gold if you know how to play the game. The right connections can launch your business, but only if you stay smart and don’t drown in trends and ‘pay-to-play’ deals. Curious about Dubai’s real draw and how it shapes up as a place to invest or live? Tune into this episode for our full take!
