Dishang Patel reposted thisDishang Patel reposted thisWhere there's a will, there's a way. That's the context our brand film was made in. A small team of people. Mostly in Dubai. Some in New York. Some in London. A perfectly laid-out production schedule, deeply rooted in shooting locally in the UAE, because that's where this story lives. International travel pauses. We pivot to a virtual shoot; directing, reviewing and approving footage remotely, in real time, from 3 cities at once. Not something we'd ever planned for, but something that somehow works. The day of the shoot lands on the day of the UAE floods. Against the odds, we still get our shot. A huge thank you to the collective team who found a way and made it happen. Watch the film below. 👇 #DigitalWithAHumanTouch #Filmmaking #Advertising #Creative #UAE #Banking

Dishang Patel reposted thisToday, I'm pressing publish on something that's terrified me for years. 🌟 I recently read "Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway" by Susan Jeffers. So here I am today, doing exactly that. The idea for The Enablr has lived in me since 2009, when my son Rai became my greatest teacher. But between the vision and today were a few setbacks and an imposter syndrome that, for a long time, was louder than my conviction. I'm not a technologist or a policymaker. I'm a mum who drove across three emirates looking for a therapist who'd see her child, not a label. For a long time, that felt like the wrong qualification to build something this important. Then I stopped waiting to feel ready. I took small steps and had conversations with parents, with providers, with people who'd earned my trust. None of them removed the fear. They just made the fear smaller than the purpose. I know The Enablr will shift the dial (even if just an inch) . For People of Determination who deserve to be welcomed without a fight, and for providers who have a real opportunity to design access that genuinely includes. I'm not doing this alone. A growing community and a trusted network are shaping what The Enablr becomes and that's what gives me courage. Baby steps first: Dubai, the city I've called home for 13 years, is where we begin. Today the waitlist opens → the-enablr.com If you've ever searched for a door that wasn't there or believe in building one then join us and don't keep The Enablr a secret. Creating doors where there are walls. 🚪✨ #TheEnablr #PeopleOfDetermination #Inclusion #UAE #Dubai #FounderStory #FeelTheFearAndDoItAnywayDishang Patel reposted thisToday's the day. 🌟 The Enablr waitlist is officially open.

Dishang Patel reposted thisThat’s a wrap on a week of conversations from our Dubai Corporate Office. To close out The Business Breakfast’s week-long broadcast from Dubai Silicon Oasis, our Group CEO Raheel Ahmed and Group General Counsel, Ghalia Bushnaq, joined Dubai Eye 103.8 for a conversation covering how the bank prepared for possible bad loans at the start of the regional conflict, why it has used very little of those provisions and what it is seeing across the UAE economy six months later. They also discussed responsible borrowing, buy now, pay later loans, credit scores and why customers should speak to their bank early if they are facing financial difficulty.

Dishang Patel reposted thisAs a family living alongside a Person of Determination, we know how exhausting the search for genuine inclusion can be. It can feel like an endless cycle of trial, error and quiet frustration. You spend hours researching, making calls and hoping a provider truly understands what accessibility and care look like in practice, only to discover that what was promised on paper does not match reality. For families like ours, genuine inclusion is a daily necessity, not a nice-to-have or a marketing buzzword. That is why what Preeya Patel is building with The Enablr matters so much to us. We are proud to see her turning a challenge faced by so many families into a meaningful solution, and we want to use our own journey to help move it forward. Rather than creating another directory filled with empty claims, she is launching a verified marketplace: a platform that gives families real confidence by connecting them with providers who demonstrate inclusion before any commitment is made. The waitlist opens on Monday, 21 September. If you believe inclusion should be the standard, join the waitlist and help us share this with the families and providers who need it most: www.the-enablr.com #TheEnablr #PeopleOfDetermination #Inclusion #UAE #Accessibility #ImpactDishang Patel reposted this💜 We're back. It's been quiet here for a few months because we've been quietly building. On Monday 21st September, The Enablr opens its waitlist at www.the-enablr.com A verified marketplace connecting People of Determination with providers who prove inclusion... not just claim it. If you believe inclusion should be the standard, follow along. 🌟 The Enablr - Creating Doors where there are Walls #TheEnablr #PeopleOfDetermination #UAE #Inclusion

Dishang Patel shared thisCBDC or stablecoin? I’d argue that’s the wrong question. The more useful framing is hub and spoke. The Digital Dirham settles in sovereign money — finality, and the full trust of the central bank. Regulated AED stablecoins extend that trust outward: e-commerce checkouts, machine-to-machine payments, global wallets a domestic CBDC may never reach on its own. Core and edge. Not rivals. I wrote about this for Khaleej Times (link in comments), including what it could mean for cross-border flows and the UAE’s ambition as a digital finance hub. The harder question is the one after that. The benefits are real, but operating models have to be defined before anyone adopts at scale. Who owns the customer relationship? Where does liquidity sit? What changes for treasury on day one? Curious where others land — especially anyone who’s started mapping this out properly. #DigitalDirham #CBDC #Stablecoins #UAE #Fintech

Dishang Patel liked thisDishang Patel liked thisProud to share that, for the second year in a row, we have been recognized by MEA Finance for Best Real-Time Payments Implementation. It was a privilege to receive this recognition alongside Abdul Rahim Ahmad & Bhaskara Gubbala. While several critical transformations and implementations continue behind the scenes, moments like these remind us of the impact we are creating. I couldn’t be prouder to bring this recognition home for RAKBANK. This award truly belongs to the team working tirelessly behind the scenes (many missing in the pic), our partners who continue to collaborate and challenge us, and our leadership for their trust, sponsorship, and continued support. Real-time payments are ultimately not just about speed—they are about building reliable, resilient, and seamless experiences at scale. A great milestone for the team, with much more still to come. Thank you, MEAFINANCE for recognition. #RAKBANK #MEAFinance #RealTimePayments #Payments #DigitalTransformation #BankingTechnology #Teamwork #Innovation

Dishang Patel liked thisStrong brands are built when strategy, identity and experience move together. Koto has captured the Rakbank transformation incredibly well - balancing 50 years of heritage with the ambition and simplicity of a modern digital bank. Proud to have worked closely on this journey and helped bring the thinking to life across the wider brand experience. #digitalwithhumantouch #BrandTransformation #BrandStrategy #MarketingDishang Patel liked thisDigital with a human touch. That was the promise guiding a total brand evolution for one of the UAE’s oldest banks. We worked with the Rakbank team in Dubai to bring the promise to life – a project that touched everything from strategy to identity, and digital experience to launch campaign. The result is a brand defined by duality. A fresh identity, rooted in heritage. An evolved logo, and a new wordmark. Design craft, and campaign thinking. Digital, and human.

Dishang Patel liked thisDishang Patel liked thisLast week, Middle East Stablecoin Association - MESA held its first Annual Event, hosted by The Wealth Today, and I think many of us are still absorbing what happened. The turnout was overwhelming, the rooms were full, the conversations continued well beyond the panels and a week later, my LinkedIn feed is still buzzing with Middle East Stablecoin Association - MESA updates, takeaways and conversations. That says something. In just 18 months, MESA has grown from an idea into a licensed NPIO under the DIFC, with a stellar Board, six committees and subcommittees led by committed Chairs and Co-Chairs, and an increasingly strong industry and regulatory voice. Structured, compliant and purpose driven. Because if we advocate for governance and regulatory clarity, we should probably practise it too. And no, we still don’t particularly care for matcha 😉. Give us stablecoins, programmable money, tokenisation and financial infrastructure, though, and apparently, we can talk for days. What made the Annual Event special was that it wasn’t built around panels for the sake of panels. These were working conversations. Regulators, former regulators, policymakers, industry leaders, technologists and lawyers identifying friction, challenging assumptions and discussing solutions. Less conference, more think tank. I had the privilege of co-moderating the opening panel with regulators, former regulators, policy experts and industry leaders. And perhaps there was something fitting about two lawyers opening the day . Because the lawyer’s role in this ecosystem is changing too. We are not simply interpreting regulation after it is written, we increasingly sit at the intersection of law, policy, technology and markets, translating between regulators and industry and helping turn innovation into frameworks that can actually work. As a MESA Board member, watching what has been built in 18 months was incredibly special. The Annual Event was a milestone, but the packed rooms and the conversations still continuing a week later tell me something more important: MESA is no longer just building an association, it is building a voice, and we are only getting started. A huge thank you to Matthew Nyman, my co-host, and to our fantastic panelists, Wai Lum Kwok, Bryan Stirewalt, Maha Al-Saadi and Bhavin Shah for making the opening conversation such a meaningful one. A special shout-out to our Chairman, Bhaskar Dasgupta, The Wealth Today, our MESA Board members, all our MESA members, and everyone who joined us and contributed to the conversations. Here’s to everything we build from here.

Dishang Patel liked thisDishang Patel liked thisBeat that. I stopped by an optical shop in Dubai today to ask if they could do the eye test for my driving licence renewal. They could, so I thought, “Let’s get it over with.” The test went fine. I wear glasses, but I could still see enough to pass. 😄 Then the gentleman said, “We can do the RTA renewal for you here, too.” Two minutes later, he had my address and told me the physical licence would arrive on Monday. Today is Thursday. I walked out feeling rather pleased with myself. I had barely left the shop when three emails arrived from RTA: - Transaction confirmed. - Digital license delivered. - My number registered for fine notifications. Naturally, they made sure that part worked too. 😂 Eye test, application, digital license: about five minutes. Time is money This is what a public service should feel like. Dubai, beat that.

We are pleased to announce that MEVP has led Abwab.ai's $4M seed round alongside Speedinvest. Abwab.ai provides the credit infrastructure that allows banks and lenders in Saudi Arabia to underwrite, originate and monitor SME loans at a fraction of the cost and time. Saudi SME lending reached SAR 489 billion in Q1 2026, up 28% year on year. As loan books expand, underwriting capacity becomes the binding constraint. This is the problem Abwab.ai was built to solve. We look forward to supporting Baraa Koshak, Mohammad Hashem and the team through this next stage of growth. Read more: https://lnkd.in/d8JT7CZB #MEVP #Fintech #SaudiArabia #SMELending
