A New Era of Luxury Living and Business in Abu Dhabi
The Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) has introduced a premium concierge service for Ultra High-Net-Worth Individuals (UHNWIs), entrepreneurs, and family offices. Developed in collaboration with Quintessentially, the world’s leading luxury lifestyle group, this bespoke service offers tailored assistance to individuals looking to establish themselves in Abu Dhabi.
The program provides a seamless and sophisticated entry into the emirate’s thriving business environment while offering access to its luxurious standard of living. It is the latest initiative that reinforces Abu Dhabi’s growing reputation as a global hub for investment, innovation, and lifestyle excellence.
Abu Dhabi: A Magnet for Global Investors
As Abu Dhabi continues its transformation into an innovation-driven economy, it has become one of the most attractive destinations for international investors. With a business-friendly environment, no restrictions on foreign ownership, and zero personal income tax, the emirate provides an ideal setting for long-term investment and wealth preservation.
In addition, Abu Dhabi offers political stability, modern infrastructure, and a regulatory framework that supports entrepreneurship. These strengths make it a top choice for global investors and family offices seeking to diversify portfolios while maintaining security and stability.
The emirate’s vision is built around creating a trusted environment for enterprise growth and wealth creation, ensuring that investors can thrive both professionally and personally.
Seamless Relocation and Integration
ADIO’s concierge service goes far beyond traditional business support. It assists UHNWIs and family offices through every stage of relocation and integration. From investment facilitation and business setup to residency, education, healthcare, and property management, every detail of the move is managed with precision and discretion.
The service also provides guidance on local regulations, helping investors navigate the administrative landscape effortlessly. By offering a single point of contact, the concierge ensures a smooth, confidential, and efficient experience for every client.
This comprehensive approach reflects Abu Dhabi’s understanding of the unique needs of global investors—individuals who value both efficiency and exclusivity.
Leadership Insights: Redefining Investor Experience
H.E. Hareb Al Mheiri, Executive Director of ADIO, stated that the concierge service represents Abu Dhabi’s commitment to understanding and supporting global investors. He said, “Abu Dhabi understands the ambitions of today’s global investors, which is why we are building a system that matches their expectations. Our concierge service blends the practical support needed to relocate and grow with the discretion and high quality of life UHNWIs expect.”
Darren Ellis, Group CEO at Quintessentially, described the collaboration as a game-changer for the region. “This is a first-of-its-kind model in Abu Dhabi. With ADIO, we are creating a trusted platform for global investors to enter and thrive in the emirate, with seamless service at every step. The ADIO Concierge redefines the investor experience, reinforcing our commitment to delivering exceptional luxury services to distinguished clients,” he said.
The Power of Partnership
The partnership between ADIO and Quintessentially unites two areas of expertise: ADIO’s deep understanding of Abu Dhabi’s business environment and Quintessentially’s mastery of luxury lifestyle management. For more than 25 years, Quintessentially has been the global leader in personalized concierge services, serving the world’s most discerning individuals and brands.
Their collaboration introduces a new model for supporting investors—a combination of business facilitation and lifestyle enhancement. It allows clients not only to establish enterprises in Abu Dhabi but also to enjoy an elevated living experience.
From securing premium real estate to arranging top-tier educational opportunities for families, this service ensures that every aspect of a client’s transition is handled with care and exclusivity.
Supporting Abu Dhabi’s Economic Vision
The ADIO Concierge is part of the emirate’s broader mission to attract international capital and foster an innovation-led economy. It complements ADIO’s initiatives focused on future-ready industries such as health, technology, and sustainability.
ADIO is actively developing specialized economic clusters that strengthen Abu Dhabi’s global competitiveness. These include:
HELM (Health, Endurance, Longevity and Medicine)
This cluster focuses on advancing healthcare innovation, wellness, and medical research. It encourages investors to explore opportunities in biotechnology, medical tourism, and life sciences.
SAVI (Smart Autonomous Vehicles Industries)
This cluster supports the development of autonomous systems and smart mobility solutions, shaping the future of transportation and logistics.
AGWA (AgriFood and Water Abundance)
Focused on food security and sustainable water management, AGWA promotes innovation in agri-tech and resource efficiency.
These clusters demonstrate Abu Dhabi’s dedication to diversifying its economy while creating high-potential opportunities for global investors.
Why Abu Dhabi Stands Out
Abu Dhabi’s success in attracting UHNWIs lies in its rare blend of opportunity, stability, and luxury. The emirate offers:
- Political and regulatory stability that ensures investor confidence.
- World-class infrastructure supporting advanced industries and connectivity.
- Zero personal income tax and flexible business regulations.
- Global connectivity through international airports and ports.
- A rich cultural landscape and premium lifestyle amenities.
This balance between economic opportunity and exceptional living standards makes Abu Dhabi a preferred destination for individuals and families seeking growth and comfort.
Beyond Business: A Lifestyle of Excellence
While business opportunities are central to the ADIO Concierge, the program also focuses on personal well-being and lifestyle. It supports clients in exploring Abu Dhabi’s cultural, leisure, and entertainment offerings while ensuring smooth family integration into the community.
Quintessentially’s lifestyle managers assist with bespoke services such as fine dining reservations, private travel arrangements, yacht experiences, and exclusive events. This personal touch transforms relocation into a journey of refinement, allowing investors to experience the best of what Abu Dhabi has to offer.
Abu Dhabi’s diverse offerings—from desert adventures and world-class golf courses to art galleries and luxury shopping—further enhance its appeal as a global lifestyle destination.
