Expansion supports UAE’s vision for economic diversification, sustainable growth, and digital transformation
Ansarada, a global leader in virtual data room (VDR) and AI-powered dealmaking technology, has announced its further expansion into the Middle East, strengthening its role as a partner in the region’s fast-evolving investment landscape. The move comes as the UAE positions itself as a global hub for business, innovation, and cross-border transactions under its Vision 2030 agenda.
Ansarada’s Q2 2025 market analysis highlights strong deal activity in the UAE, with 24 transactions totalling US$1.9 billion during the quarter. Sectors such as energy, financial services, and technology led the activity, reflecting Dubai’s rise as a global AI hub and a magnet for international investment.
“Our AI-powered platform simplifies due diligence and helps advisors and companies make smarter, faster calls on complex deals.”
– Arie Maree, Head of Growth, Middle East & Africa, Ansarada
The company’s presence in the region is already well established, working with corporates, advisors, sovereign wealth funds, and government agencies. With local data storage in the UAE since 2018, Ansarada provides faster, localized support while ensuring compliance with regional legislation—an increasingly critical factor for dealmakers managing high-value, cross-border transactions.
“UAE is entering one of the most ambitious economic transformations in history and dealmakers need technology that can match that scale.”
– Justin Smith, Managing Director, Ansarada
Justin Smith, Managing Director at Ansarada, said the company’s expansion reflects the scale of opportunity:
“By continuing to expand our footprint here, we’re not only offering faster, more localised support, we’re giving companies and advisors the tools to move with certainty, unlock international capital and help facilitate the region’s growth agenda.”
Ansarada’s AI-powered platform goes beyond traditional VDR functions, offering predictive insights with 97% accuracy, behavioural monitoring, and automated due diligence tools. These capabilities help dealmakers identify risks and opportunities earlier, accelerate decision-making, and manage complex transactions with greater confidence.
Arie Maree, Head of Growth, Middle East & Africa, added:
“As Dubai strengthens its role as a global hub for innovation and cross-border transactions, we’re proud to support that vision with cutting-edge deal technology.”
As the only top-tier VDR provider offering data at rest in the Middle East since 2018, Ansarada combines world-class security with regional infrastructure and tailored solutions designed for Middle Eastern clients.
With Dubai cementing its reputation as a gateway to the Gulf and a global AI powerhouse, Ansarada’s technology aims to empower dealmakers to navigate regulations, accelerate cross-border investments, and secure transformative transactions shaping the UAE’s economic future.
