America has Silicon Valley....Saudi Arabia has Entaj Industrial Valley....and the UAE has Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO)! DSO is a 7.2 million square meter Mega Project that will be the UAE's answer to Silicon Valley and other high tech locations around the world. According to DSO the mission of this development is:

'To create a state-of-the-art “Technology Oasis” universally recognized as a global technology hub by facilitating and promoting modern technology based industries, including those that depend on the design, development and manufacturing of precision electronics, optoelectronic technology, nanotechnology, photovoltaic, and supporting equipment and materials industries. Specifically included are industries built around the production of information and communications technologies using semiconductors.'

DSO offers: 'state-of-the art office towers, R&D and industrial zones, educational institutions, luxury apartments and villas, hotels, healthcare and an extensive range of lifestyle facilities.
