Bahrain has announced USD 3.89 billion in investment following the award of Golden Licenses to four large-scale projects at Gateway Gulf 2026. Spanning aviation logistics, real estate and technology, the initiatives feature investments from DHL, Capital A, Meliá in partnership with Infracorp, and Digital City Bahrain. The projects support long-term economic diversification, with non-oil activity representing approximately 86% of national GDP.
Masar Group, a portfolio company of Mumtalakat, has agreed with Ithmaar Development Company to manage and operate Dilmunia Marina in Bahrain. Spanning 15,000 square metres of water and 8,723 square metres of land, the marina accommodates 121 vessels. Set to open in December 2026, the project will expand marine tourism, leisure services and coastal infrastructure across the Kingdom.
