Lifecycle planningUAE permits & licensingSupplier & workforce

Where we have done it

Projects where the planning and permissions layer carried the most weight:

BudX FIFA Fan Festival

A global format delivered locally, where the operational plan has to satisfy both an international rights holder and UAE authorities.

Khalid Bin Sultan City launch

A private launch for Beeah, run to a different standard of protocol and guest handling than a public festival.

Discovery Dunes

A desert site, where logistics, supplier coordination and permissions dominate the plan.

Common questions

Do you handle permits, licensing and government relations?

Yes. Licensing, permits and authority liaison across UAE jurisdictions are part of this scope, alongside budgeting, staffing and supplier management.

How early should we bring in an operations partner?

As early as venue and date shortlisting. Early operational input shapes site design, capacity, budget and licensing before they become constraints, and that is where it adds the most value.

Who owns the creative and the programming?

You do. Organisers and brands own the vision, the content and the lineup. type A owns making it run.
