CODE81, Moro Hub, and Liferay Partner to Accelerate Digital Transformation and Experience Innovation in the UAE
In a move set to accelerate the UAE’s digital transformation journey, Moro Hub, a subsidiary of Digital DEWA, the digital arm of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (PJSC), has signed a strategic partnership with Liferay, a global leader in Digital Experience Platforms (DXP), and CODE81, a regional technology consultancy and solutions provider.
The memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed by Mohammed Bin Sulaiman, CEO of Moro Hub; Moussalam Dalati, General Manager for the Middle East, Africa, and France at Liferay; and Nader Paslar, General Manager of CODE81, on the sidelines of GITEX Global.

The alliance unites Liferay’s global DXP technology, CODE81’s regional implementation expertise, and Moro Hub’s advanced hosting infrastructure, offering a comprehensive foundation for enterprises and government entities to build secure, scalable, and intelligent digital ecosystems.
Mohammed Bin Sulaiman, CEO of Moro Hub, said:
“At Moro Hub, our vision goes beyond delivering technology infrastructure — we are actively shaping the UAE’s journey toward becoming a global digital capital.

By joining forces with world-class partners like Liferay and CODE81, we are enabling organizations to accelerate transformation, foster innovation, and reinforce the UAE’s position as a regional and global leader in digital excellence.”
Enhancing Stakeholder and Citizen Experiences
