Mohamed Alabbar, founder of Emaar, said: “Our performance in the first half of 2020 has demonstrated our fundamental ability to retain strength and act with agility and speed in the face of the challenges presented by Covid-19. Emaar’s performance is a testament to the products we introduce and the people behind these innovations.”

“We’ve placed an even greater emphasis on being a lean organisation and, through our geographical expansion, we have been able to deliver a solid performance. By acting boldly, innovating, revisiting our talent and retaining cash liquidity, I truly believe we have delivered a strong result despite the many challenges we faced. As the world emerges from Covid-19, I am confident that we will use our strength, talent and business diversity, that we have focused even more intensively on during these challenging times, to face the future stronger than ever,” he added.

Emaar introduced several initiatives which include the launch of the new Emaar Properties website (emaar.com), direct online booking on emaar.com, alongside numerous initiatives and offers on the Emaar One app. Additionally, it offered the Emaar Virtual Assistant, a new brokers’ app – MyEmaar, the Interactive Map feature, and 360 Virtual Tour tours across Emaar communities and properties on emaar.com.
