Options for Listing Your Family Business
Every business has different needs and strategies.
Designed for established businesses generating healthy revenue streams. You can become a publicly listed company on the Main Market while maintaining majority ownership with a low free-float percentage. This market is suitable for Mainland, Freezone-based and International companies.
If you need expedited access to capital for your small business, consider our Growth Market option. Enjoy all the benefits of going public, but with an abbreviated IPO process for an accelerated path to your capital requirements.
If your business isn’t quite ready to be publicly listed, the Private Market could be the optimal stepping stone, associating your company with the credibility of Nasdaq Dubai while gearing up for an eventual IPO.
