The company's footprint now extends across the Middle East with projects in the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Lebanon.

As of 30th June 2015, DAMAC Properties has delivered 14,375 homes and has a development portfolio of over 37,000 units at various stages of progress and planning.

The company is listed on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM). The company also issued a US$650 million five year Sukuk on NASDAQ Dubai in April of 2014, which was more than four times oversubscribed and was placed with institutional investors across Europe, the Middle East and Asia.

As a leading player in the market, DAMAC Properties has joined forces with some of the most recognisable fashion and lifestyle brands in the world to bring new and exciting living concepts to the market. Projects include a Tiger Woods designed golf course which will be managed by The Trump Organisation, luxury apartments with interiors by Italian fashion-house Versace, luxury apartments and villas with interiors by FENDI and uniquely conceptualised Paramount Hotels and Resorts to bring serviced living at it most opulent.

The company is also developing two of the most anticipated luxury master communities in Dubai - AKOYA by DAMAC and AKOYA Oxygen. With a combined square footage of almost 100 million sq ft, the two distinct projects bring luxury villas within lush green surrounds to the doorstep of those looking to escape the city lights in a private, serene environment.

Running through the heart of each project will be an 18-hole Championship Golf Course - The Trump International Golf Club, Dubai designed by Gil Hanse at AKOYA by DAMAC and The Trump World Golf Club, Dubai, designed by Tiger Woods. Both courses will be managed by the Trump Organisation, offering the highest levels of white glove service.

Each project will house the highest luxury villas and apartments currently available on the market, with branded living concepts available within AKOYA by DAMAC from Paramount Hotels & Resorts and FENDI. The Trump Estates mansions also offer a truly indulgent lifestyle, with panoramic views across the course.

As a global leader in branded real estate, the company is also developing a US$1.35 billion hotel and luxury serviced residences in the Burj area of Dubai, called DAMAC Towers by Paramount, which will comprise the first Paramount hotel and serviced residences in the region.

With vision and momentum, DAMAC Properties is building the next generation of Middle East luxury living.
