When Dubai Family Office opened their new office in Edinburgh, they had a clear goal: build a workspace that supports smart business operations, professional client meetings and everyday productivity - right from day one.
As a one-stop centre offering business services like business setup support, corporate advisory, legal and accounting services, relocation assistance and property management in the UAE, they work with professionals from all over the world. Their Edinburgh office mirrors this international focus, welcoming lawyers, business owners and visiting partners who need a workspace that just works.
To help them deliver that experience in-house, HeyIT was brought in to design and install their entire technology setup from the ground up.
Secure, Business Grade WiFi Built for Growth
As a new business helping clients launch or expand into the UAE, Dubai Family Office didn't just want WiFi - they needed fast, reliable and secure internet access for both staff and guests.
We installed a business-grade WiFi system that gives:
Strong, consistent coverage through the offices and meeting rooms
A secure internal network for team devices
A separate guest network and simple login portal for visitors
In practical terms, this means staff can work with confidence, and visiting professionals can connect easily - all without compromising security or performance.
By building the network properly from the start, the office is future-ready and scaleable as the business grows.
Professional Video Conferencing for Client Meetings
Dubai Family Office regularly works with international partners, stakeholders and advisors.
Instead of relying on laptops in meeting rooms, we installed dedicated Microsoft Teams Rooms systems that allow:
One touch joining of meetings
Large, easy-to-see displays
High-quality sound and video
Clean, cable free setups
This makes remote meetings feel natural and professional - whether participants are in Edinburgh, Dubai, or elsewhere.
Interactive Collaboration with Samsung Flip 4
To support teamwork and strategy sessions, we also installed a Samsung Flip 4 interactive whiteboard in the main meeting space.
This powerful digital board allows teams to:
Write, draw and brainstorm directly on screen
Share content from laptops or devices
Save and share meeting notes instantly after sessions
It replaces traditional whiteboards and notebooks with a seamless digital experience - ideal for presentations, planning sessions and collaborative meetings.
A Clean, Professional Finish
Because this was a brand-new business space, presentation was key.
We ensured:
Screens and equipment were professionally installed
Cabling was neatly managed and hidden
Technology was integrated with the office's modern layout
The result is a workspace that feels polished, professional and ready to impress clients from the moment you walk in.
