During the prestigious RAK Central event, Major Developments revealed that global football icon Patrice Evra, former Manchester United star and captain of the French national team, will partner on Colibri Views, an upcoming flagship tower destined to be one of RAK Central’s tallest structures.

This announcement occurred at a notable event celebrating the completion of RAK Central’s core infrastructure, spearheaded by Arch. Abdulla Al Abdouli, CEO of Marjan, and attended by key industry and government figures. The event highlighted RAK Central’s evolution into a premier Live-Work-Play destination, aligned with RAK Vision 2030, and set to attract over 6,000 professionals. ALEC was named the primary contractor for the RAK Central HQ Office Complex, emphasizing the district’s swift transition from planning to execution, combining business, lifestyle, and tourism.

On stage, Andrei Charapenak, CEO of Major Developments, and Patrice Evra unveiled Colibri Views, a tower embodying the district’s dynamic blend of business, lifestyle, and leisure. They also introduced a unique feature: the UAE’s first rooftop Footbot football simulator, an award-winning wellness experience created by Evra. This innovation merges sport and technology in daily life, offering data-driven training and recovery in a residential environment, redefining modern amenities in the region.

The event concluded with Patrice Evra signing a plaque presented to Abdulla Al Abdouli as a token of appreciation, marking a significant milestone for RAK Central and Major Developments.

Patrice Evra expressed his enthusiasm, saying, “Partnering with Major Developments on Colibri Views is an honor. I trust they will deliver a project of global standards, embodying ambition and innovation, and I admire how this vision captures the essence of RAK Central as a place to live, work, and play.”

Andrei Charapenak noted, “Completing RAK Central’s infrastructure is a pivotal achievement, crediting Marjan’s leadership. It sets the stage for substantial investment, robust business, and a quality of life that attracts global talent. Colibri Views aligns with this vision, offering architectural elegance and innovation. Our partnership with Patrice Evra and the Footbot introduction underscores our commitment to integrating performance and wellness into daily life, enhancing the district’s prestige.”

RAK Central is fast becoming the UAE’s most anticipated Central Business District, envisioned as a seamless ecosystem where business, lifestyle, and tourism meet. With world-class infrastructure in place, the district is set to attract global businesses, thousands of professionals, and vibrant communities, benefiting from proximity to the upcoming Wynn Al Marjan Island Resort, just seven minutes away. Colibri Views by Major Developments complements this vision, providing architectural splendor, panoramic views of Wynn Resort, Al Hamra Golf Course, and the Arabian Sea, while adding a new dimension of performance-driven innovation, affirming RAK Central’s transformative path.
