Behrooz’s Journey from Stockholm to Dubai

Curious about what it’s like to transfer to one of the world’s most dynamic cities? Behrooz shares how Dubai won him over and what it’s like to be part of real transformation.

Sometimes big decisions start with small moments. For Behrooz, it was a spontaneous office visit during a vacation in Dubai that changed everything. “I checked out the office just out of curiosity, and walked out knowing I’d be back,” he says. That instant connection with the city and the people sparked a sense of belonging and opportunity. Some places simply feel right, and for Behrooz, Dubai was one of them.

Relocating from Stockholm to Dubai meant more than just a change in climate. It was a move toward a city known for its global energy, ambitious pace, and forward-looking mindset. With over 85% of the population made up of expats, Behrooz found a place that felt both diverse and connected. “You have the best of the world gathered in one place,” he explains. For someone looking to grow professionally and personally, that environment offered the perfect foundation.

“If you’re even thinking about it – go. You’ll figure out the rest.“

The pace is fast, the learning is constant, and the impact is tangible. It is a place where ambition meets opportunity.
