We take our name very, very seriously. Ikigai is a Japanese word that roughly translates to ‘passion that gives value and joy to life’.
At Ikigai Ventures, we believe our purpose is to help you, our client, get the right deal at the right time at the right price.
And that means legwork – we liaise with the zones and get the paperwork sorted so you don’t have to.
That means being aware of every little change in the market, so you don’t have to weather any storms.
That means tailoring our approach for every client, taking into consideration their specifications and financial commitments.
And to do it simply without any convoluted processes.
Our mission is to guide you through the landscape of business setup in the UAE, allowing you to focus on what you do best – growing and thriving.
It doesn’t matter what size of operation you are looking at, whether it’s a new set-up or an expansion project. Our professionals are committed to helping you grow your idea in the best way possible.
Your dream is our mission.
We have principles. We operate on the following guidelines:

Simplicity: We streamline the business setup process, making it straightforward and hassle-free.

Integrity: We uphold the highest standards of honesty and transparency. No hidden fees, no secret agendas.
