EUROPE — DUBAI
Clarity before
commitment.
Independent Dubai strategy for investors, founders and internationally mobile families.
Before the property search, the relocation or the business setup, take a step back. Understand what you want to achieve — and whether Dubai fits the bigger picture.

01 / THE ADVISORY
Start with the objective.
Then consider Dubai.
Investing, relocating and establishing a business are different decisions. Each deserves its own questions — and a view of how it connects to the rest of your life.
My work begins with your interests, before you commit to a property, provider or structure.
01Property & investment decisionsPurpose before property
Clarify the role a Dubai property would play in your wider plan, the alternatives worth comparing and the incentives behind the advice you receive.
“What am I asking this investment to do for me?”
02Relocation & residenceLook at the whole move
Separate the decision about where to live from decisions about business, property and capital. Identify the practical questions and specialist input your move requires.
“Does the move work for the life I actually want?”
03Founders & market entryEstablishment with intent
Explore why a Dubai presence makes sense for your business, what you need from the market and which decisions to resolve before selecting a setup provider.
“What would a presence here help my business achieve?”
02 / THE PERSPECTIVE
I work before the transaction, when there is still room to change the decision.
SARAH PATRIZIA
INDEPENDENT STRATEGIC ADVISOR
A long-term perspective.
An independent voice.
I’m Sarah Patrizia, founder of Rooms of Power and an independent strategic advisor. Drawing on 15 years living and working in Dubai, I bring first-hand market experience and a Europe–Gulf perspective to the relationship between geography, business and capital.
I work with international investors, founders, executives and families considering property, relocation, business establishment and market entry into the UAE. My work begins before the transaction: clarifying objectives, examining the incentives behind the advice you receive, and assessing alternatives and risks before you commit capital or make significant cross-border decisions.
I explore the changing geography of wealth: how internationally mobile families choose where to live, operate businesses and invest, and the growing role of the Gulf within those decisions. I look beyond the appeal of an individual destination to consider how these choices connect and whether they serve the wider ambition.
I also speak and moderate on global wealth mobility, family offices and the changing relationship between Europe and the Gulf. My recent engagements include moderating “The Shifting Map of Global Wealth” at the AYU Family Office Summit in London, as well as guest appearances on podcasts focused on family offices, private wealth and cross-border investment.

A FEW PRACTICAL QUESTIONS
Before we
begin.
Who is the consultation for?
Investors, founders, executives and internationally mobile families considering Dubai for property, residence or business. It is a starting point when you have a decision to explore and want an independent perspective before committing.
How does your advisory work?
The starting point is your objective. We examine what you want to achieve, how the choices connect and what still needs to be understood. I work as an independent, client-side strategic advisor, rather than as your property sales agent.
Does a consultation include legal or tax advice?
The consultation focuses on strategy, decision clarity and questions to resolve. Legal, tax and regulated investment advice should come from appropriately qualified specialists for your circumstances.
How do I arrange a conversation?
Send a brief outline of what you are considering. We can establish whether the consultation is the right fit, arrange payment and then schedule a time. The fee is €450 for 75 minutes.
