UAE-based property portal Bayut.com said it has shifted its headquarters from Dubai Internet City to a sprawling 9,000-sq-ft space in the creative and innovation-driven neighbourhood of Dubai Design District (d3), to accommodate their rapidly growing team.

The new office is just a stone’s throw away from the centre of Dubai’s bustling Downtown and commercial focal point, DIFC, said the company in a statement.

Bayut.com, which was officially launched in 2008, began with just five employees and has now grown to over 100 staff members and close to 800 clients.

The Bayut team is expanding and also achieving new milestones regularly, it stated.

The actual environment of the up and coming d3 area is also symbolic of Bayut.com’s commitment to staying ahead of the curve, introducing dynamic and new ways for consumers to interact with the UAE real estate market, said a top official.

CEO Haider Ali Khan said: "Our Internet City offices were split between two floors, and as we grew, the need for one large office became painfully obvious."

"The new space in d3 enables our team to not only work together more effectively, but play off the creative and vibrant energy of the neighbourhood as well," he added.-TradeArabia News Service
