At the heart of the celebration is a personal message from Founder and Executive Chairman Mahdi Amjad, reflecting on OMNIYAT’s journey from an ambitious idea in 2005 to one of the most influential forces shaping Dubai’s skyline.
The video message anchors a wider anniversary campaign that honours the developer’s legacy and will culminate in a commemorative event in January 2026.
“This milestone is one of pride and humility,” said Mahdi Amjad. “It encapsulates 20 years of life achievements that brought us here. Over these two decades, we have transformed the industry, the city, and the people we’ve served, and I am humbled by the opportunity to have touched so many lives in such a unique way. This moment is both a reflection and a renewal, a consolidation of energy that drives us towards new possibilities in a city where the impossible naturally becomes possible.”
Since its inception, OMNIYAT has delivered some of Dubai’s most iconic landmarks, including The Opus by OMNIYAT, One at Palm Jumeirah, and The Lana, Dorchester Collection, Dubai. The company’s journey includes several major milestones, from record-breaking penthouse sales to raising over $900 million through two Sukuks in 2025. OMNIYAT also became the market leader in Dubai’s $10 million-plus segment of ultra-luxury real estate in the first half of 2025, a year where Dubai real estate sales hit a record Dh559.4 billion.
“From the very beginning, our ambition was to contribute to Dubai’s extraordinary vision to create places that reflect its spirit of innovation and its commitment to elevating the human experience,” Amjad added. “That belief has guided every decision we’ve made for the past two decades.”
As OMNIYAT steps into its next chapter, the anniversary marks the beginning of a new era of expansion. Central to this vision is Marasi Bay, a curated waterfront destination that will integrate ultra-luxury residences, hospitality, and wellness experiences.
Additionally, the developer’s next project, AVA at Palm Jumeirah, featuring a sky palace with a private 360-degree swimming pool, is on track for handover in the second quarter of 2026.
OMNIYAT’s 20-year legacy continues to be guided by its founding philosophy, ‘The Art of Elevation,’ aiming to create spaces that transcend function to become timeless works of art.
