Dubai's International Media Production Zone in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates
Highlights:
Dubai's International Media Production Zone :
Dubai’s International Media Production Zone (IMPZ) seeks to create a unique cluster environment for
media production companies from across the industry value chain, and from across the world, to interact
and collaborate effectively.
Catering exclusively to companies in the 3P industries – Printing, Publishing and Packaging – IMPZ is an
initiative of the visionary Dubai government, under the patronage of parent company, Dubai Holding.
As a master developer, IMPZ will provide an environment of growth by building key facilities, investing in
infrastructure, and forming a unique free zone that incorporates industrial, commercial, residential and
community service projects under its mantle. The vast complex will be housed on a territory of over 43
million square feet of land, in the heart of commercial Dubai.
The IMPZ initiative is part of Dubai’s vision to develop itself into a global media hub. As such, it will provide
a pro-business environment, sophisticated technology and community infrastructure to support and foster
the growth of media production.
Key investments
IMPZ has committed to an initial investment of approximately US$ 280 million and it is expected that
tenants in the printing and packaging business will invest a further US$ 280 million in machinery alone.
IMPZ is intended to be a world-class destination that mixes old-world pleasures and
entertainment with a modern, sophisticated ambiance.
IMPZ will feature wide open spaces, traditional wind towers, cobble stone walkways, unique sculptures, waterways topped with bridges, creek side souks, restaurants and cafes, an amphitheater for live performances and cultural festivals, an exhibition hall and museums, and a dockyard where traditional dhow building will be on display. It will blend Middle Eastern history with the rich heritage of Dubai, offering an inspired mix of Arabic and old Dubai architecture. Murals, sculptures and pottery will adorn the façades of buildings and street corners.
IMPZ's master plan has been divided into residential, commercial and retail zones with hospitality and entertainment sub-districts.
The residential district will feature traditional low to medium-rise buildings offering studio, one, two, three, and four-bedroom apartments with contemporary interiors, including loft-style apartments with work areas.
The commercial district will house cultural institutions, schools, academies for art, music, dance, pottery and other crafts. World-class infrastructure and facilities will be available for each organization.
