Dubai South Properties is the government-backed master developer of the 145-sq-km Dubai South metropolis, anchored by the $35 billion expansion of Al Maktoum International Airport — set to become the world's largest hub by 2030. Led by CEO Nabil Al Kindi, the developer's active projects include the South Bay lagoon community and the South Square luxury hub. With the Dubai Metro Blue Line driving a 155% year-on-year surge in residential sales, the district offers rental yields of 7–10% and is fast becoming Dubai's new centre of gravity.
