Women of Influence – Redefining Lifestyle in the UAE
In this episode of Sobha The Living Room, host Nimi Mehta sits down with Qurat Ul Ain, Co-Founder and Chief Legal Officer of DRE Homes, and one of the most respected voices in Dubai’s property market.
From advising first-time buyers to guiding investors through the city’s ever-changing skyline, Qurat has witnessed Dubai’s transformation from a transient hub to a global home for innovation, culture, and community living.
Together, Nimi and Qurat explore how design, detail, and diversity have shaped the UAE’s architectural identity and why women today are playing a bigger role than ever before in how homes are built, bought, and lived in.
They talk about what makes UAE’s architecture stand out, how developers are adapting to the rise of female investors, and why wellness, sustainability, and smart design are defining the next chapter of luxury living.
