Key findings
Reasons for the uptick
Implications
Outlook & cautions
The 15-20% growth estimate is ambitious but plausible given the structural drivers. However, some external variables could moderate growth: global growth slowdown, automation reducing staff headcount, rising talent costs in India, or shifts in Gulf firmsโ offshore strategy.
Still, for investors, developers and occupiers alike, this represents a compelling opportunity: aligning office real-estate strategy with the evolving offshore-services model anchored in Gulf-Middle East dynamics.
