Omniyat was founded by Mahdi Amjad in 2005 with a vision to contribute to Dubai’s skyline through the development of modern commercial and residential buildings. He is the Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of what has become one of Dubai’s fastest growing and most significant players in the real estate industry.

Over the last decade, Amjad has lead Omniyat to become a leading privately-held property developer that has dynamically enhanced the city’s skyline with landmark projects. He has led Omniyat to put art and design at the heart of every one of its developments and has been instrumental in large-scale collaborations with award-winning and globally respected designers, including the late Dame Zaha Hadid, Foster & Partners and Super Potato.
