The SME Hub marks the \u200eGroup\u2019s first-of-its-kind development designed to support SMEs in establishing and \u200escaling their operations in the emirate. \u200e<\/p>\n<p>Scheduled for handover before the end of this year, and located in KEZAD A (KEZAD Al \u200eMa\u2019mourah), the 25,260 square metre KEZAD SME Hub is designed as a practical \u200ebridge between early-stage SME incubators and full-fledged industrial market facilities. \u200eThe aim of the SME Hub is to ease the transition from startup to scaled production and \u200edistribution within an integrated economic zone. \u200e<\/p>\n<p>The hub benefits from direct connectivity to Khalifa Port and Etihad Rail networks, and \u200eoffers businesses access to more than 75 percent of the UAE\u2019s urban areas within a 90-\u200eminute drive.\u200e<\/p>\n<p>As a pioneering development, the AED 112 million hub combines Micro Industrial Units \u200eand office suites in a single model, enabling SMEs to streamline day-to-day activity, \u200elogistics and costs. Co-located within a like-minded SME community and complementary \u200eindustrial activities, businesses can unlock partnership opportunities through shared \u200eservices and supplier networks. \u200e<\/p>\n<p>The hub comprises 175 flexible business-ready Micro Industrial Units starting from 100 \u200esquare metres, supported by a dedicated business centre and access to KEZAD\u2019s on-\u200esite infrastructure and business support services.\u200e<\/p>\n<p>SMEs represent 94 percent of all businesses in the UAE, and contribute to 64 percent of \u200ethe nation\u2019s non-oil GDP. In Abu Dhabi, SMEs constitute around 98 percent of the \u200eemirate\u2019s businesses, employ 46 percent of the workforce, and contribute to around 43 \u200epercent to its non-oil GDP. With the SME sector expected to grow to one million \u200eenterprises by 2030, SME development remains central to the diversification of Abu \u200eDhabi\u2019s economy.\u200e<\/p>\n<p><strong>Abdullah Al Hameli, CEO, Economic Cities &amp; Free Zones, AD Ports Group<\/strong>\u00a0said: \u200e\u200e\u201cSME sector growth is a top priority for Abu Dhabi.
