Editorial Note
The definitive record of how Indian enterprise built modern Dubai — and how modern Dubai, in turn, remade Indian ambition.
§ Synopsis
Inside the book.
Behind the Burj Khalifa, DP World, and the skyline the world knows are 3.5 million Indians who quietly wrote one of the greatest urban growth stories in modern history. This book profiles the forty families and founders who built it — with interviews conducted across Dubai, Sharjah, Mumbai, Kochi, and Chennai over three years.
