The Dubai-based AMIS Development has received the first tranche of funding from the First APAC Fund VCC, a leading Singaporean investment fund. In November 2024, the fund signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to invest up to Dh5 billion in AMIS.

The deployed funds will be allocated to ongoing and upcoming projects, including strategic land acquisitions in key locations such as Meydan and Dubai Islands. The capital injection aims to accelerate the company's growth, enhance its project pipeline, and provide even more high-value developments to meet the increasing demand for luxury residential properties in the UAE.

Neeraj Mishra, Founder and CEO of AMIS Development, commented on the achievement:“We are excited to receive the first tranche of funding from First APAC Fund. This significant investment will allow us to continue developing world-class residential communities and further expand our land acquisitions in Dubai. Our strong growth momentum reflects the strength of our portfolio and the trust that investors have in our ability to deliver outstanding luxury real estate.”

Darrell Lim, Founding Shareholder and Director of First APAC Fund, added:“We are very excited to commence capital deployment in AMIS Development, and the release of this first tranche of funding represents a significant milestone in our collaboration. We have great confidence in AMIS Development's leadership and its ability to continue delivering outstanding, high-quality real estate projects in Dubai. We look forward to working together to unlock further potential in the region.”

AMIS Development's portfolio includes the Woodland Residences project, which was sold out in January 2024 for Dh425 million, and the ongoing Woodland Terraces project, with completion expected by first quarter of 2027. The company has also launched the Woodland Crest project, with completion scheduled for second quarter of 2027. In addition to these developments, AMIS has secured prime land in Meydan and Dubai Islands for future luxury residential projects.

With the first tranche now deployed, AMIS Development and First APAC Fund look forward to future capital deployments, which will be released according to the progression of AMIS's growing portfolio and expanding project pipeline.
