I would go along those lines if youre looking to open a business similar to it. Its a good start.
    I am a software guy. data integration, migration to warehousing. custom software you name it I have done it. So software consultancy? thats what I am thinking.

    Calgarian have you considered the expat route? I'm an American expat in the UAE and here they pay quite a bit to expats for their consulting and training expertise. Worth a look.

    You could also try dubizzle.com, kinda the local version of craigslist. The workforce over here is at least 75% expat, and the emirati locals aren't known for their IT literacy I'm sure with a little digging you can find a place for yourself
