FlyBy Guys expand to Dubai

Dubai-based project management firm Seattle LLC will bring its client base and regional experience to the joint venture, leveraging its extensive network and established industry reputation. Seattle LLC, in line with its corporate strategy, will be able to further diversify its offering by expanding outward into the UAV & Robotics technology sector.

“Seattle LLC continues to seek innovative partners with unique technology solutions that enable us to stay at the forefront of trends across all industry verticals,” said Saeed Al Hamli, Partner and CEO of Seattle LLC.

“This agreement allows us to focus on our core business while leveraging Seattle LLC’s strength in the region, allowing us to reach more customers than ever before. A key milestone in our global expansion strategy,” said Stephen Sutton, CEO of Flyby Guys OY. “We’ve had tremendous success delivering several high-profile drone light shows globally for our multinational partners and government clients here in the region, and it makes sense to build on that success by expanding into the Middle East via Dubai.”
