Dubai International Chamber, one of the three chambers operating under the umbrella of Dubai Chambers, has successfully attracted Africa Legal Tech, a South Africa-based legal technology firm to Dubai and assisted the company in expanding from the emirate. The attraction of the innovative firm reflects the impact of the chamber’s efforts to attract companies, investors, and talent from around the world to benefit from exciting opportunities in the emirate across diverse business sectors.
Africa Legal Tech’s Dubai branch provides value-added legal services to companies operating in the UAE that wish to establish or expand their business activities in Africa. The company is leveraging Dubai’s strategic location and world-class infrastructure to drive the growth of its business and plans to launch its first fundraising round in the emirate this year. Africa Legal Tech is eager to strengthen its position in the legal services market on the African continent and capitalise on the growing demand in the sector.
Simba Makahamadze, Founder and CEO of Africa Legal Tech, commented: “The African legal services market is worth billions of dollars. Our growth plan is to conquer this market by leveraging Dubai’s strategic location and technology infrastructure. The emirate ticks all the boxes for us, including easy access to capital.”
