According to CEO Jeremy Allaire, Abu Dhabi\u2019s commitment to financial innovation makes it a natural partner for companies helping to build the future of internet-native finance.<\/p>\n<p>As part of its UAE strategy, Circle is teaming up with Hub71, Abu Dhabi\u2019s leading tech hub. The collaboration will integrate Circle into Hub71\u2019s growing network of startups and investors, providing opportunities for early-stage fintech and crypto-focused businesses to tap into global expertise.
