The Government of Dubai is preparing to make part of its offices available in the metaverse, according to reports. The country is currently seeking third parties to help it arrange the transition of some of its departments to the virtual world, per statements made at a metaverse event by Sharad Agarwal, chief metaverse officer of Cybergear.

Dubai, an emirate that is part of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is reportedly taking some of its government departments into the metaverse, to allow users to perform actions in these facilities in the future. This would be the next step for the country, which has previously presented its Dubai Metaverse Strategy to position this technology as an important part of the future of the emirate.

Sharad Agarwal, chief metaverse officer of Cybergear, a Dubai-based metaverse company, talked about this process at a local metaverse-themed event. He stated:

” We have started getting a lot of inquiries from government departments and ministries to make them Metaverse-enabled. It is just a matter of time before Dubai becomes the crypto and Metaverse hub of the world. ”

However, the construction of these areas and the establishment of their functions will take time. “There is hard work involved, so you need to decide what services you want to offer and business model and then onboard community just like it exists in the physical world,” Agarwal further explained.
