PIXEL DHCC: A modern office space
PIXEL DHCC will be a nine-storey office building designed to meet high environmental standards, including LEED Platinum certification.
Covering around 13,000 square metres, the building will include flexible office spaces along with retail units on the ground floor.
The project is designed to support healthcare businesses and related industries by offering modern, adaptable workspace within the healthcare free zone.
IBN SINA+: A new medical complex
The second project, IBN SINA+, will be a dedicated medical facility linked to the existing Ibn Sina complex in the community.
Designed as a five-storey building, it will include space for surgeries, diagnostics, outpatient services and medical offices.
Covering about 5,800 square metres, the facility is expected to expand clinical capacity and improve access to healthcare services within DHCC.
To complement these developments, DHCA is also delivering supporting infrastructure to enhance accessibility and support the needs of the growing DHCC community.
