Ehsan's Market Analysis

Dubai is an underrated market for edtech market. While most attention goes to Silicon Valley, Dubai's 2,000+ startups are building companies adapted to local market dynamics. The $95K average salary creates interesting unit economics for bootstrapped and capital-efficient companies. My recommendation: start with a niche, own it, then expand.
