BEDU, the Dubai-based Middle East provider of Metaverse and Web3 technologies, announced an ambitious expansion of its services and team, aligning itself closely with Dubai’s recently announced emirate-wide Metaverse strategy.
“Dubai’s bold vision for the next iteration of the Internet is one we wholeheartedly share,” said Amin Al Zarouni, Chief Executive Officer of BEDU. “Today, BEDU looks to that future, as our strategy already aligns with that of the government. We have made waves already with our work in NFTs, blockchain and the Metaverse. Our UAENFT Keypass, a unique membership scheme for the non-fungible token community, was launched by our UAENFT division earlier this year, and we have conducted a series of well-received curated art drops. As we expand our services, it is now our intention to enable a free economy within our Metaverse and create several job opportunities that will contribute to national growth.”
“Combined together, Web3 and the Metaverse are a journey in the making. BEDU is building that virtual future, today – brick by brick, stone by stone – and we’re excited about every step we take forward to achieve this,” adds Al Zarouni,
The Dubai Metaverse Strategy, announced last month, aims to create 40,000 virtual jobs by 2030 while contributing $4 billion to Dubai’s GDP over the next five years. The program also aims to strengthen the emirate’s reputation as a Web3 leader and Metaverse hub, with over 1,000 metaverse and blockchain companies already in operation.
BEDU, which was founded in 2021, has quickly risen to become the leading Web3 company in the UAE. Following the announcement of the Dubai government’s Metaverse strategy, the company intends to expand its services to assist public and private sector entities in their Web3 transformation journeys. These services will include Web3 and Metaverse project consulting and advisory, as well as Smart Contract Audit and Development, Custom Metaverse Development, and Web3 Turnkey solutions.
BEDU is also expanding its team in the UAE in order to accelerate the company’s growth and operations and contribute to job creation in the metaverse. The company is looking to hire some of the most forward-thinking Web3 experts, Metaverse consultants and developers, as well as blockchain and other solution specialists.
