Nasab, which is part of Dubai’s Koa Canvas development in Al Barari, has launched a recovery programme which will provide up to 30 eligible businesses with complimentary offices and workspaces for six months, in an effort to provide them with “the tools to reconnect with a like-minded community and the financial space to thrive in a post Covid-19 environment”.

It is reserved for companies that started their businesses before 2019, have between one and 16 employees and has a founder that is over the age of 21.

The team have worked extraordinarily hard to create an incredible space; we can’t wait to now see the community grow within it.” The three-level club is anchored by a large, open-plan room that feels like a modern-day library. It also features communal tables separated by book shelves and meeting rooms with different design. <em><strong>Scroll through the gallery above for a glimpse of Nasab's facilities.</strong></em>
