Ras Al Khaimah Technology
A company home for technology founders
Innovation City is a Ras Al Khaimah free zone focused on technology businesses. Its sector offering includes artificial intelligence, robotics, Web3, gaming and health technology, giving digital founders a setting aligned with the products they build.
The business activity still needs to match the company’s actual work. A software or blockchain activity does not automatically authorize regulated virtual-asset or financial services. Establish the licensing scope and any separate regulatory permissions before planning operations.
Still deciding how to structure the application? Review the company setup planning guide, then confirm the requirements of your chosen authority.
Technology scope is not regulatory clearance
Discuss the product, customers and revenue model before selecting activities. Where the business involves regulated services, the relevant regulator’s permission must be considered separately.
