In its new capacity as a DMCC Ecosystem and Advisory Partner, Bybit will provide strategic guidance to the DMCC Crypto Center and its members.
Acknowledging the new advisory role, Chief Operating Officer at Bybit, Helen Liu, said that the company is honoured to be the first organization appointed to this advisory role by DMCC and that they are excited to leverage their expertise to drive innovation and support the growth of the industry in Dubai.
This shift underscores Bybit’s commitment to fostering the growth and development of the region’s crypto industry.

To enhance Dubai’s standing as a leading global crypto hub, Bybit and DMCC have planned two major industry events this year.
A global hackathon will be organized to nurture innovation by supporting developers in building Web3 projects. Additionally, a flagship conference will bring together industry experts and key opinion leaders, positioning Dubai as a centre for thought leadership in the crypto space.
Over the past year, Bybit has played a crucial role in Dubai’s crypto ecosystem, actively supporting and advising over 20 startups.
Their initiatives included a $100,000 prize pool hackathon, a masterclass for aspiring entrepreneurs, and a high-profile side event at Token 2049. These efforts have helped numerous startups establish a foothold in Dubai’s dynamic crypto landscape.
