About Us

Dear Readers,

Dubai Chronicle is an on-line only Live Journal.

Since its first appearance in February 2007, Dubai Chronicle has grown to become one of the leading on-line publications in Dubai, across the Emirates and wider Middle East.

Our business philosophy is to build distinguished relationships with our readers, business partners, and staff based on professionalism and trust resulting in returns to all parties involved.

We strive to develop and market high quality, value added, consumer-preferred informational products and services that exceed our clients’ expectations. We meet our objectives by investing in various media related fields that develop our business for the future, based on pre-set core values and principles.

Our Vision

To be the preferred on-line journal in the Middle East.

Our Mission

To add value and make a difference to the society, our readers and ourselves.

Our task, as we see it, is to provide our readers with:

• solid reporting on the news and trends that most directly affect larger business focused audience;
• original research into critical economic issues;
• exposure to innovative thinking and entrepreneurial ideas along with the latest science and technology developments.

Our design is intended to be as reader-friendly as possible without compromising the underlying seriousness of the stories. Extensive use of videos, charts, polls, tables, and  illustration helps telegraph the main points. We rely heavily on original photography and sketches to enliven the pages, and to underscore the message that today’s media is a far cry from yesterday’s news makers.
