About Leos Developments

LEOS Developments is a British developer that has quickly become one of the most prominent players in the UAE market. Founded in the UK in 2012, the company is now heavily involved in Dubai, where it’s positioned as a master developer setting the standards for quality and innovation in residential communities. The founder and CEO of LEOS is an architect, entrepreneur, and top manager Rui Liu, who is listed by Forbes as one of the most influential leaders of construction companies in the Middle East. Under his leadership, LEOS started a large-scale expansion in the region and moved its operational center to Dubai.

The company entered the UAE market in 2022, accompanied by a series of major projects and a strengthening of the team. Also, it launched an investment fund of approximately $7 billion to accelerate development in the UAE, with at least 10 new projects announced by 2025. Among the first are townhouses and villas at Meydan and Dubai Silicon Oasis, and, as mentioned above, the developer's headquarters was now moved to Dubai.

LEOS's first major project in Dubai was Hadley Heights at Jumeirah Village Circle, a tower with 216 apartments and retail spaces on the lower levels. The project was originally conceived as a high-quality environment for everyday life with an emphasis on architectural expressiveness and comfort of the residents. Then, the company launched Weybridge Gardens at Dubailand — this project combines «British» aesthetics, functional layouts, and a full range of amenities. Also, let’s not forget about Cavendish Square at Jumeirah Village Triangle, a compact community with an emphasis on simple forms, environmental considerations, and practical solutions. All this has helped LEOS cement its image as a developer creating recognizable and comfortable spaces at reasonable prices, which’s important for those who want to buy properties by Leos Developments at an early stage and expect an increase in value by the time the projects are completed.

In 2024-2025, the company's portfolio in Dubai expanded with the addition of new large-scale communities. Among them is Knightsbridge at Meydan District 11 — Dubai's first «wellness community» with townhouses and villas, focused on energy efficiency, biophilic design, and smart home technology. Construction has already started, and the project's investment budget is approximately $544,000,000, which makes it one of the company's most expensive assets at the moment. In addition, Kensington Gardens are currently under construction at Greenwood — it’s a collection of townhouses and villas with an eye toward British standards, and its first phase is estimated at $299,500,000. Current and recently completed projects also include continuations of the Weybridge line, such as Weybridge Gardens 2 and 3, as well as The Alps Edition concept at Dubailand, where the company is experimenting with themed landscaping solutions, combining the aesthetics of European resorts with the developed infrastructure of Dubai.

In terms of international brand recognition, LEOS regularly appears in business media and industry rankings, which further builds trust among the buyers and financial partners. Forbes names Rui Liu as the founder and CEO of LEOS Developments, and separately notes his investment fund and the company's pace of expansion in the UAE.

If we talk about what the developer is famous for, it is, first, the transfer of British aesthetics to the Dubai market — we mean attention to proportions and finishes, energy-saving technologies, and thoughtful architecture. The Knightsbridge project became a high-profile entry into the wellness community niche, Kensington Gardens is a flagship boutique solution, while Hadley Heights, Weybridge Gardens, and Cavendish Square represent a recognizable line of vertical and low-rise projects in popular locations.
As for the company's most expensive project to date, Knightsbridge is worth noting — industry publications report a cost of around $544,000,000 and 2 phases at Meydan District 11. At the same time, the previously announced valuation of the first phase of Kensington Gardens at $299,500,000 highlights LEOS's growing focus on luxury villas and townhouses. All this, as well as a $7,000,000,000 investment fund, suggests the company can simultaneously pursue several major areas of development.

For potential buyers considering buying property by Leos Developments, a few aspects are important. First, the company builds properties in rapidly developing areas with good transport links, which ensures liquidity and stable rental demand. Second, it pays due attention to engineering and energy efficiency, which reduces operating costs and improves the quality of life for residents. Third, the diversity of the product line allows you to choose properties for different budgets and purposes, while the corporate structure and public profile of the company add transparency for buyers from abroad. The LEOS website has a list of key executives, and the company is positioned as a private international developer with British roots.
