Solana Joins DMCC Crypto Centre as an Ecosystem Partner
In a strategic move poised to redefine Dubai’s position in crypto innovation, the Solana Foundation has joined forces with the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) as an ecosystem partner. This partnership marks a significant leap forward for the Solana blockchain and Dubai’s burgeoning crypto landscape.
Dubai: The Epicenter of Crypto Innovation
Dubai has long been recognised as a global hub for commerce and enterprise, and the DMCC stands at the forefront as a free zone that fosters commodities recognised entrepreneurial ventures. With a mission to bolster decentralisation, adoption, and security within the Solana network, the Solana Foundation has found a natural ally in the DMCC Crypto Centre.
A Synergy of Support
The collaboration between the Solana Foundation and DMCC Crypto Centre promises to empower member companies and developers. Solana’s cutting-edge blockchain platform will serve as the bedrock upon which these entities can build and scale their visionary projects. This infusion of expertise and resources aims to catalyse Dubai’s ascent as a powerhouse in the crypto sphere.
The Solana Foundation’s commitment goes beyond mere affiliation. They catalysed DMCC Crypto Centre members with invaluable technical and business development support, granting them access to the dedicated Solana engineering teams. Furthermore, the Foundation’s grant program will extend its generous reach to DMCC-affiliated companies, nurturing innovation and growth.
Education and Empowerment
Education is a cornerstone of this partnership. The Solana Foundation and DMCC Crypto Centre will collaborate to offer a series of webinars and educational courses on a wide range of essential Web3 topics. This initiative will equip the community with the knowledge and tools to navigate the ever-evolving crypto landscape.
Integration and Collaboration
Solana’s commitment to this collaboration is tangible, as they will establish a physical presence at the DMCC Crypto Centre. By immersing themselves in this thriving ecosystem, Solana aims to engage with a network comprising technology partners, exchanges, government entities, investors, incubators, accelerators, and service providers. This endeavour will connect them with the extensive community of 23,000 companies operating within DMCC’s bustling business district.
Ahmed Bin Sulayem’s Vision
Ahmed Bin Sulayem, the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of DMCC, expressed his enthusiasm for this groundbreaking partnership. He noted, “Solana is one of the most prominent blockchains in the world, boasting a market capitalisation of USD 8 billion, placing it in the top 10 largest crypto projects globally.” He continued, “Providing this type of supportive environment is our core philosophy for the DMCC Crypto Centre. Through this strategy, we have developed one of the most dynamic and value-creating ecosystems for Web3 firms, offering the largest concentration of crypto, blockchain and Web3 businesses across the MENA region.”
Dan Albert’s Perspective

He stated, “With its high density of crypto companies and pro-growth attitude, supporting the DMCC was a natural fit as we look to tap into the abundant Web3 value in Dubai. We look forward to working with members of the Crypto Centre to onboard them to our chain and introducing our existing ecosystem to DMCC so they can also scale their operations.”
