About Buggy-in-Dubai
Our Journey Begins: 2012
Welcome to Buggy-in-Dubai, a pioneering news platform dedicated to delivering unbiased and accurate information about one of the world’s most vibrant cities, Dubai. Founded in 2012, our journey began with a simple yet powerful vision—to fill an information gap that we noticed within the digital landscape of Dubai.
We recognized that while Dubai is a bustling metropolis teeming with opportunities and unique experiences, there was a lack of centralized, reliable sources providing comprehensive news and insights. This void inspired us to create a one-stop platform where residents, visitors, and enthusiasts could find everything they needed to know about this fascinating city.

Bridging the Information Gap
Our motivation to create Buggy-in-Dubai stemmed from the realization that while Dubai boasts an impressive digital infrastructure, there was a distinct lack of reliable local news sources. We identified several gaps in the market:
- Comprehensive Coverage: Many websites focused on specific aspects of Dubai’s vibrant scene, but none offered a holistic view.
- Local Perspective: Most international media lacked an authentic understanding of Dubai’s unique culture and people.
- Real-time Updates: Information was often outdated or slow to adapt to the city’s rapidly changing landscape.
We aimed to fill these gaps by providing timely, accurate, and engaging content that reflects the spirit of Dubai.
