Select Property to Unveil Birmingham’s Most Exclusive Residence, Attracting GCC Investors Amid Low UK Interest Rates

Published

on

• Select Property launches a new luxury development at the Capital Club on October 10th
• New luxury development in Birmingham, UK, ideal for investors looking to diversify or with children being educated in the city
• Off-market opportunity allows investors to purchase at the lowest possible price with access to a development that prioritises wellness and luxury.

 Select Property, a leading UK-based property developer and investment partner, is set to launch an exclusive new residential development in the heart of Birmingham, the UK’s top city for rental yields and capital growth. This launch comes against the backdrop of lower interest rates and recent UK visa reforms for GCC nationals, both of which are driving renewed activity in the UK property market.

Earlier this year, the firm released the findings of a survey, which found that 73% of KSA investors have considered investing in the UK property landscape, of which, 75% were eyeing Birmingham or Manchester, and 65% viewed real estate as their preferred investment haven. The harmony between GCC investors and the UK real estate market is evident as market analysis estimates over AED 11 billion influx of investment in 2024 , amongst other factors that are contributing to this forecast.

Adam Price, CEO of Select Property, said: “Birmingham, home to our latest development, a luxury residence for the UAE and GCC market, has become a key focus due to its high rental yields, promising infrastructure developments, and a robust student population. The city’s combination of luxury-branded residences, educational institutions, and thriving economic prospects mirrors the appeal seen in other key UK cities like Manchester. GCC investors, particularly from the UAE and Saudi Arabia, are leveraging their returns on local properties to invest in UK real estate, seeking the strength and stability the market offers.”

To mark the launch, Select Property will host an exclusive VIP investor event for the residential development on the 10th of October, offering attendees priority access to a pre-launch discount ahead of the global launch later in that month. This off-market opportunity allows investors to purchase at the lowest possible price with access to a development that prioritises wellness and luxury.

The new development will enhance the resident experience like never before, with a focus on well-being and luxury amenities spanning 14,000 sq. ft. over five storeys. Notably, it will be the first residential development in Birmingham city centre to feature a swimming pool. Other amenities include a spa, a climbing wall, and a 45th-floor sky lounge, offering residents a modern urban lifestyle. The exclusive event is designed to engage with VIP GCC investors, featuring coffee and breakfast sessions, expert presentations, and 1:1 meetings with property consultants. Participants will additionally gain exclusive early access to apartment selections and valuable insights into the UK property market, with Birmingham being spotlighted as the UK’s strongest investment city for rental yields and capital growth.

The event will take place on 10 October 2024, from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Capital Club, DIFC, featuring insightful presentations from experts in the UK property market and bookable 1:1 consultations. The event will additionally include a presentation from Select Property’s CEO, Adam Price, from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, providing an overview of the UK property market and latest insight, alongside a UK mortgage update from Enness Global (international finance brokerage), offering guidance on why now is the time for investors to diversify into UK real estate.

Ivanti Introduces Ring Deployment in Patch Management to Enhance Cyber Resilience in the GCC

Published

on

By

Ivanti, the company behind secure and intelligent IT systems, has launched Ring Deployment in its Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management platform—marking a significant innovation in how enterprises across the GCC manage and respond to cybersecurity risks.
The newly introduced feature gives IT teams greater flexibility and control, enabling them to group devices into strategic deployment rings. This approach allows for efficient patch testing and rollout across different departments or regions while minimizing risks and business disruptions—an essential step as the cyber threat landscape grows increasingly complex.
Across the Gulf region, organizations continue to face an uptick in sophisticated threats and ransomware attacks. Frequent patch updates, including zero-day fixes and priority browser updates, often leave IT teams struggling to keep pace. By integrating Ring Deployment, businesses in the region now have access to a structured process that reduces exposure to vulnerabilities while ensuring smoother user experiences and better compliance with internal SLAs.
Husni Hammoud, Managing Director of Ivanti, operated by IVM EME, said: “We developed Ring Deployment to meet the real-world security and operational challenges that IT teams face today. In a region that’s rapidly digitizing and expanding its critical infrastructure, ensuring vulnerabilities are patched quickly and intelligently is not just a best practice—it’s a necessity. This tool gives our regional customers a reliable, efficient way to mitigate risks without compromising on performance.”
Ali Ikram, Technical Manager at Ivanti, operated by IVM EME, added: “The structured rollout process ensures that patches are thoroughly tested and validated before wider distribution, reducing downtime and ensuring continuity. For IT teams stretched by competing priorities, Ring Deployment becomes an essential part of their security toolkit—especially in industries like finance, healthcare, and government where uptime and data protection are critical.”
Ivanti’s solution uses its proprietary Vulnerability Risk Rating (VRR) to help IT teams prioritize what needs to be patched based on real-world threat data—not just severity. Unlike traditional CVSS scores, VRR dynamically adjusts based on exploitation potential, giving GCC organizations a more accurate understanding of their risk landscape.
By offering automated or manual promotion of patches through various deployment rings, Ivanti’s platform ensures updates are not only secure but also minimally disruptive. From real-time insights to controlled patch promotions, Ring Deployment is designed to support large-scale, yet agile IT operations across the GCC.

“إيفانتي” تطلق ميزة “النشر المرحلي” لتعزيز مرونة الأمن السيبراني في دول مجلس التعاون الخليجي

أعلنت شركة “إيفانتي”، المتخصصة في أنظمة تكنولوجيا المعلومات الآمنة والذكية، عن إطلاق ميزة “النشر المرحلي” (Ring Deployment) ضمن منصتها “إيفانتي نيورونز” لإدارة التحديثات، في خطوة تُعد تحولاً نوعياً في كيفية تعامل المؤسسات في دول مجلس التعاون الخليجي مع التهديدات السيبرانية والاستجابة لها.

الميزة الجديدة تمنح فرق تقنية المعلومات مرونة وتحكماً أكبر من خلال تمكينهم من توزيع الأجهزة على مراحل استراتيجية منظمة. ويسهم هذا النهج في اختبار التحديثات ونشرها بكفاءة عبر الإدارات أو الفروع المختلفة، مع تقليل المخاطر والانقطاعات التشغيلية، في ظل ازدياد تعقيد مشهد التهديدات السيبرانية على مستوى المنطقة.

وتواجه المؤسسات في الخليج ارتفاعاً ملحوظاً في الهجمات السيبرانية المعقدة وهجمات الفدية، إلى جانب ضغوط مستمرة للتعامل مع تحديثات الأمان الدورية والعاجلة مثل إصلاحات “يوم الصفر” وتحديثات المتصفحات. وهنا تبرز أهمية “النشر المرحلي” الذي يتيح آلية منظمة لتقليل الثغرات الأمنية وضمان تجربة سلسة للمستخدمين وامتثال أفضل لمعايير الأداء الداخلية.

وأكد حسني حمود، المدير العام لشركة “إيفانتي”، التي تدير عملياتها في الشرق الأوسط وشمال إفريقيا عبر “آي في إم إي إم إي”، قائلاً: “طورنا خاصية النشر المرحلي استجابة للتحديات الحقيقية التي تواجه فرق تقنية المعلومات، خاصة في منطقة تسير بخطى متسارعة نحو الرقمنة وتوسيع بنيتها التحتية الحيوية. الحل يتيح لعملائنا في المنطقة معالجة الثغرات بسرعة وكفاءة دون التأثير على الأداء التشغيلي”.

من جانبه، قال علي إكرام، المدير الفني في “إيفانتي” – الشرق الأوسط: “توفّر عملية النشر المنظم إطاراً لضمان اختبار التحديثات والتحقق من فاعليتها قبل تعميمها، مما يقلل من أوقات التعطل ويضمن الاستمرارية التشغيلية. بالنسبة للقطاعات الحيوية مثل المالية والرعاية الصحية والحكومة، يُعد هذا الحل أداة لا غنى عنها لتحقيق توازن بين الحماية والأداء”.

وتعتمد “إيفانتي” في منصتها على مقياس “تقييم خطر الثغرات ” (Vulnerability Risk Rating – VRR)، الذي تم تطويره داخلياً، لتحديد أولويات التحديثات بناءً على البيانات الواقعية للتهديدات، وليس فقط درجة خطورتها. وعلى عكس المؤشرات التقليدية مثل CVSS، يعتمد هذا التقييم على احتمالية الاستغلال الفعلي، ما يمنح المؤسسات الخليجية تصوراً أدق لمستوى المخاطر الفعلي.

وتتيح المنصة إمكانية الترقية التلقائية أو اليدوية للتحديثات عبر مراحل متعددة، بما يضمن عمليات نشر آمنة ومنظمة، ويمنح فرق تقنية المعلومات رؤية آنية وتحكمًا كاملاً في كل مرحلة.

About The Gentlemen Season 2
It’s been one year since Eddie and Susie joined forces to work together in Bobby’s criminal empire overseas. As they drive to expand their enterprise, the decisions Bobby is making seem to be increasingly unsound. Now Eddie and Susie must decide whether to take action or risk losing it all, but unfettered ambition never ends well…

Guy Ritchie said: “I am delighted to return to set for season two of The Gentlemen. This chapter sees a deliberate expansion, both geographically and thematically, as we journey from the English countryside to the Italian lakes. Eddie and Susie find themselves navigating an increasingly volatile empire as they’re besieged on all fronts by an influx of enigmatic new players. The stakes are heightened, the power dynamics are more precarious, and I’m thrilled to be collaborating once again with this exceptional cast and crew.”
