JIH Opens Flagship Office in Dubai, Introducing a Bespoke Platform for Luxury Real Estate and Hospitality Investment
Jul 3, 2025
JIH, a boutique international consulting and investment firm, has officially launched its flagship office in Dubai on 3 July 2025, introducing a refined platform built to serve the region’s most discerning investors, developers, and global brands across the luxury real estate and hospitality landscape.
JIH’s entry into the UAE market has been in development since 2022, reflecting a carefully planned strategy to establish an independent, globally oriented firm with deep experience, trusted relationships, and a long-term view. The July 2025 launch marks the formal operational opening of JIH in Dubai, the culmination of years of cross-border engagement, project delivery, and client partnership.
“This has been a long-term vision,” said Mr. Mohamed Ali Janah, Chairman of JIH. “Dubai is where ambition, capital, and global design sensibility meet. JIH is proud to offer a platform that blends legacy with foresight built for partners who value trust, quality, and results.”
An independent business with this flagship office in Dubai, JIH offers strategic advisory and investment services across high-value real estate and hospitality, from branded residences and resort developments to capital partnerships, asset repositioning, and integrated lifestyle destinations.
With a leadership team spanning two generations, the firm blends the integrity of a proven family legacy with a forward-looking approach to development, capital structuring, and asset stewardship. JIH’s principals have delivered landmark luxury projects in complex markets, including the Maldives and the Gulf, and now bring that track record to the heart of the UAE’s investment ecosystem.
Built on legacy, designed for what’s next
JIH is led by a seasoned, multigenerational leadership team with over four decades of experience delivering luxury projects in complex markets including the Maldives and the Gulf. Its principals have overseen more than 50 developments, partnering with some of the world’s most recognised hospitality and lifestyle brands.
Now operating from Dubai, the firm brings a distinctive blend of family legacy, institutional discipline, and hands-on execution to every project.
“We are not a volume business,” the JIH team affirms. “We work with discerning clients and partners who prioritise excellence, luxury, and long-term, sustainable value. Every partnership is intentional and highly personalised.”
With capabilities spanning strategy, development, capital structuring, and delivery, JIH is designed to meet the evolving needs of a diverse global client base from those building landmark destinations to those unlocking value in underperforming assets.
Why Dubai, why now?
The JIH team has long operated across the region. The Dubai office represents the firm’s formal entry into the UAE market, providing a regional base for long-term collaboration and growth.
