Through the expansion, the tech company further intends to increase its support for public and private sector customers on their cloud and app modernization journeys.
The newly expanded regional HQ of VMware Middle East was inaugurated by Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (Dewa). During the function, he highlighted the role of digital technology in developing innovative services in the UAE and the region.
The expansion of VMware’s Dubai office also demonstrates the UAE’s increasing significance as a regional center for VMware.
