Veteran British lawyer to help position UAE as a key ‘Borderless Business Hub’
Mark Beer, former Chief Executive of the DIFC Courts, returns to the Middle East as Special Advisor to Virtuzone, the first and largest company formation firm in the region, a press communiqué indicated.
Virtuzone and Mark’s shared vision is to position the UAE at the heart of a borderless global economy, supporting the country’s transition to the Fourth Industrial Revolution as a knowledge based, technology enabled digital economy, the press statement continued.
“Mark brings an incredibly sharp mind, a brilliant reputation and a proven talent for securing government support behind disruptive planning,” remarked Neil Petch, Virtuzone Chairman and Co-founder.
“As the world moves to a new economic cycle, one in which international commerce is getting harder, it is fitting that Dubai and the UAE pivots,” commented Mark Beer.
Beer is a veteran British lawyer who headed the DIFC Courts for more than ten years, leading the institution to become one of the top commercial courts in the world.
