Deliverect Kiosk Arrives in UK: The Cloud-Based Lifeline for Restaurants Facing Ongoing Operational Pressures
With Deliverect Kiosk, restaurants gain more than just a self-service screen, they unlock a cloud-based, fully integrated ordering experience designed to drive conversion and scale with ease. Operating entirely in the cloud, the Kiosk ensures that menus are centrally managed and updated in real time across all locations, with built-in upselling and smart bundling to grow ticket sizes, no staff involvement required. Whether counter-service, QSR, or dine-in, the Kiosk offers flexible hardware options, floor-standing, wall-mounted, or countertop to suit any restaurant layout. It supports multilingual ordering, localised promotions, and loyalty integrations to engage customers across diverse markets. Real-time stock synchronisation with your POS ensures diners only see what's available; creating a smoother, more satisfying guest experience from first tap to order fulfilment.
'The timing of this launch couldn't be more relevant,' said Joe Heather, Regional General Manager at Deliverect. 'With the recent increases to the National Minimum Wage and National Insurance contributions coming into effect in April, operators are feeling the squeeze. Deliverect Kiosk gives restaurants a practical way to manage rising labour costs, streamlining front-of-house operations, speeding up service, and allowing staff to focus on more valuable, customer-facing tasks.'

Restaurants can go live in under four weeks with minimal IT involvement—ideal for fast-paced, high-volume environments.
Full ecosystem integrations: Syncs with Deliverect's full platform, including delivery channels, POS, and CRM tools.
The Kiosk will be offered as part of a bundled product suite with Deliverect Restaurants, ensuring operators benefit from an end-to-end, fully integrated system that connects in-store and digital ordering workflows. Deliverect Kiosk is already available to restaurants across Germany, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, and Belgium.

As Dubai Moves Towards Tier-1 Status, Foreign Investors Eye Relocation
Accessibility is one of the factors propelling Dubai to Tier-1 city status: 3 billion people live ... More within a four-hour flight of the UAE's most populous metropolis. The next phase of its 2040 Urban Master Plan will create a "20-minute city," where residents can reach 80% of their daily destinations within a 20-minute walk or cycle ride. The projects the European client toured looked reasonable. The yields? Attractive. On paper, everything made sense. Then, things took a turn. As any seasoned real estate advisor might, Abdullah Alajaji of Driven Properties guided his client beyond the spreadsheets. There was white-tablecloth dining in Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC). Then, a bout of relaxation on a private beach followed by a leisurely stroll through the city's luxury retail districts. Flagship boutiques from Milan and Paris lined the promenades, conjuring images of home. 'That left an impression,' recalls Alajaji. 'Then, his mindset started to shift.' Cap rates and returns faded into the background. The conversation turned toward community, wellness and long-term living. By the end of the trip, the European client purchased two units—one purely as an investment, the other for his personal relocation. 'What sealed the deal wasn't the yield,' said Alajaji. 'It was the lifestyle—the safety, the infrastructure, the ease of living in Dubai. That's what turned a business trip into a life decision.' The UAE continues to be a leader in attracting HNW and UHNW individuals. In 2023 alone, the region ... More saw an influx of around 4,500 new millionaires, placing it second globally. This shift is becoming more common. According to a new report released by Driven, Dubai is quickly transitioning from a high-growth, speculative market to a bona fide tier-1 global city. In its inaugural Tier-1 City Index, the firm ranks Dubai fifth out of seven benchmark cities, outperforming Paris and Hong Kong, and landing just behind global stalwarts like Singapore, Sydney, London and New York. The index—based on in-depth interviews with real estate developers, investors and brokers, as well as finance professionals—evaluates 28 indicators across six pillars: infrastructure, governance, economy, safety, quality of life, and international appeal. Dubai scores particularly high on infrastructure (2nd), global appeal (3rd) and quality of life (4th). Last year alone, Dubai recorded 226,000 real estate transactions totaling over $207 billion—a 20% increase in transaction value year-over-year, according to the Dubai Land Department. In the first quarter of this year, residential sales surged another 30% compared to the same period last year. All towers welcome in Dubai International Financial Centre—its dynamic skyline is a bellwether of ... More the institutional investment that brings foreign professionals and their families with it. The physical cityscape reflects this growth. Take Ciel Dubai Marina, poised to become the world's tallest hotel. Or ICD Brookfield Place in DIFC, a 53-storey tower developed in partnership with the Investment Corporation of Dubai. Last year, Brookfield sold a 49% stake to international investors in a deal reportedly valuing the property at $1.5 billion. Now, Brookfield is planning a new mixed-use development in Dubai Hills—its first residential venture in the area. 'Institutional capital is pouring in,' says Alajaji. 'It shows confidence.' But to understand how Dubai reached this inflection point, one must rewind to the global uncertainty of 2020. As much of the world shut down, Dubai took a contrarian stance: reopening its borders by July, launching long-term 'retirement' visas, and injecting $86 billion into the economy across five stimulus packages. It was a calculated bet on openness—and it worked. 'That was the moment I knew something had changed,' says Alajaji. 'When clients from Europe, Asia and North America started calling not just to buy, but to ask, 'How do we set up our lives here?'' Abdullah Alajaji, CEO of Driven | Forbes Global Properties: "Investors don't just want stability or ... More returns. They want to be part of something that's still evolving." Today, Dubai's appeal goes far beyond its tax advantages. The city offers a blend of efficient governance, safety, world-class infrastructure, and high-end amenities—the core elements that global investors and residents increasingly prioritize. 'Dubai still feels like it's in motion,' Alajaji explains. 'It's adaptive. Ambitious. That sense of momentum matters. Investors don't just want stability or returns. They want to be part of something that's still evolving.' Driven's sentiment survey, released in May 2025, reveals that 73% of market stakeholders believe Dubai is either already a tier-1 city or will become one within the next decade. This optimism is reinforced by tangible indicators: long-term residency programs, digital infrastructure rollouts and steady population growth. As the market matures, cap-rate compression is expected. Today, Dubai's investment properties yield between 6% to 8% annually—a figure considerably higher than most tier-1 peers. Yet institutional capital is increasingly willing to accept lower yields in exchange for long-term stability. 'This shift won't happen overnight,' says Alajaji. 'But the signs are already here. More joint ventures. More capital with a long-view mindset. Dubai is aligning with the world's top investment markets.' The pace may be slowing, but that may be exactly the point. Dubai's transition to a mature market is no longer theoretical. It's playing out in the numbers, buyers and buildings. The trajectory is set. Now comes the follow-through.

Tesla sales fell sharply in Q2 as Musk backlash and competition chipped away at company's dominance
NEW YORK (AP) — Sales of Tesla electric cars fell sharply in the last three months as boycotts over Elon Musk's political views continue to keep buyers away, a significant development given expectations that anger with the company's billionaire CEO would have faded by now. The company reported a 13% plunge in sales on Wednesday in another sign that Musk's embrace of U.S. President Donald Trump and far-right politicians in Europe has had a deep and enduring hit to Tesla's brand appeal. The new figures also suggest that Tesla could disappoint when it announces second quarter earnings later this month. In the first three months of this year, net income fell 71%. Sales fell to 384,122 in April through June, down from 443,956 in the same period last year. During this period, Musk formally left the Trump administration as a cost-cutting czar and hopes rose that sales would recover. Sales of the Models 3 and Y totaled 373,728, above the estimate of 356,000 from Wall Street analysts. Tesla shares rose about 1.5% in early trading. Tesla is also facing stiff competition from other electric makers, especially in Europe where China's BYD has taken a bite out of its market share. Musk has acknowledged that his work as head of the Department of Government Efficiency and his embrace of European far-right candidates have hurt the company. But he attributed much of the sales plunge to customers holding off while they waited for new versions of Tesla's best selling Model Y, and recently predicted a major turnaround in sales. The new figures come as the company is focusing less on coming out with new models and more on robots, self-driving technology and robotaxis ferrying passengers around without anyone behind the wheel. Tesla is in the midst of a test run of robotaxis in Austin, Texas, that seems to have gone smoothly for the most part. But it also has drawn the scrutiny of federal car safety regulators because of a few mishaps, including one case in which a Tesla cab was shown on a widely shared video heading down an opposing lane.
