Plan an SRTI Park company with the right activity and workspace.
Discuss your plans with an adviser.
Match the proposed activity and workspace to the business's real operation. If laboratories, research facilities or programme participation are part of the plan, confirm their availability and conditions separately from incorporation.
The current SRTI Park website uses SPark branding. Check the authority and company details in the application, then compare actual activity, premises and service terms rather than counting the names as separate destinations.
Separate ordinary company formation from specialist research facilities or programme access.
Expand a deliverable for the detail.
Describe products, advice, development or research revenue and compare the company or branch form.
Prepare founder or corporate-owner information with the business and facility application records.
Identify workspace, research or prototyping needs and any separate permissions or participation arrangements.
Firswood provides this service directly. Agree the preparation, submission and follow-up responsibilities in the written proposal, including any required professional authorisation. Authority, regulator, bank and immigration decisions remain with the relevant body.
An SPark / SRTIP brief with facilities clearly scoped
Read the four decisions together: each contributes to the same setup brief. The map is a planning aid, not an approval sequence.
Read the detailed considerationsSharjah Research, Technology and Innovation Park, also presented as SPark on its current website, combines free zone business setup with an innovation environment. Its offering includes commercial, service, industrial and consultancy activity categories alongside research-focused opportunities. The selected activity should describe the business you will operate from the start. The Sharjah free-zone directory helps compare this environment with other local setup routes. Source: SPark: free zone activities, facilities and services.
A technology founder may need a desk and a straightforward service licence, while a product developer may require specialised facilities and permissions. Treat these as different operating plans. Registration is a corporate milestone; access to laboratory resources, prototyping or a competitive programme should be confirmed through the relevant service or agreement.
Separate ordinary company formation from specialist research facilities or programme access.
Explain whether the company sells products, develops technology, provides advice or carries out research. Compatible activities may be combined subject to approval, but the licence should not be expanded with unrelated selections merely because a package permits several activities.
The current registration guidance describes new free-zone limited liability companies and branches of UAE or foreign companies. Confirm the exact entity form for the proposed ownership and use its current checklist. Settle manager and signatory responsibilities before executing documents.
SPark markets offices, research facilities, prototyping and an innovation ecosystem. Establish the specific access, equipment, safety arrangements and booking terms the project needs. Incubation, accelerator participation or investor introductions should be assessed separately from the legal act of establishing the company. Founders seeking a technology campus in Dubai can also review Dtec’s participation requirements without treating the two offerings as equivalent.

Prepare the file for the chosen legal form. Personal records, corporate-owner evidence and activity-specific approvals serve different purposes.
Use the selected legal-form checklist and identify any external approvals or specialist facility requirements.
Your ticks stay on this page for this visit. No documents are uploaded or sent.
Have a question about one of these records?
Plan the application and operating launch around the following stages.
Establish the intended revenue streams and whether the project needs ordinary office use, research facilities or a technical operating environment.
Select the appropriate new-company or branch route. Compare premises and package components with the actual team and equipment requirements.
Prepare the proposed identity and activity application. Resolve authority feedback before finalising the company documents and operating commitments.
Submit the appropriate plan, participant documents and parent-company approvals. Complete any required notarisation and regulated-activity consents.
Complete the accepted workspace and corporate arrangements and pay the agreed charges. Review the final licence scope, company details and appointments.
Arrange the eligible staff, banking and facility services. Confirm any laboratory or programme access under its own terms and set the company’s administrative calendar.
Build the proposal around the selected new-company or branch route and workspace or research-facility needs. Distinguish initial and recurring charges, professional coordination and any conditional third-party work.
| Cost component | What to account for |
|---|---|
| Registration and activity package | Request a current quotation for the chosen company form and approved activities. A startup or specialist offer may have eligibility conditions and different renewal terms. |
| Office and research resources | Separate ordinary workspace charges from laboratory, prototyping or other specialist resource use. Identify access, equipment and safety-related costs before relying on a particular facility. |
| People and immigration services | Review visa capacity and the actual application components in the offer. Medical, identity and other services should be itemised where relevant. |
| Corporate and regulated approvals | Allow for document certification, translation and external approvals. A corporate parent or regulated business may need more preparation than an individual-owned service company. |
| Ongoing records and amendments | Plan renewal, accounting and required reporting. Future changes to activities, managers, ownership, capital or premises can require separate applications and fees. |
Any authority promotion or package is subject to its current eligibility, inclusions and renewal terms.
Share your planned activity, owner structure, workspace needs and whether anyone needs residency support.
Track company approval and any research-facility access separately. A business needing testing or prototyping space may have additional preparation beyond the licence application.
Determine whether the planned services and resource needs can be accommodated. Specialist research requirements may need additional discussion.
Name approval, the business plan and participant verification form part of the sequence. Regulated activities bring external dependencies.
Accepted constitutional documents, authorisations, premises arrangements and payments must be completed before issuance.
Immigration, banking and specialist resources follow their own requirements. A company launch should account for these separate readiness checks.
Assign responsibility for company records, recurring services and changes when the formation documents are handed over.
SPark lists services for changes to ownership, management, business activities and premises. Update the authority file before treating a new commercial direction as covered.
Store executed resolutions, company documents and relevant ownership information. Keep the financial and regulatory calendar clear from the first trading period.
A prototype project can outgrow an initial workspace or introduce new safety needs. Reassess facility permissions and programme agreements before increasing the scale or type of work.
Need to discuss your own circumstances?
The current SRTI Park website uses SPark branding. Confirm the authority and company details shown in the application rather than treating the two names as unrelated free zones.
The official setup offering includes broader commercial, service, industrial and consultancy categories. The proposed activity still needs approval and should be compatible with the chosen operating arrangements.
No such guarantee should be assumed. Confirm resource access and any programme or funding opportunity separately, including its eligibility, availability and contractual terms.
The authority states that most foreign investors do not need one, while some UAE-resident or sponsored applicants may. Review the actual personal circumstances and selected application route.
The authority provides for new companies and parent-company routes. Prepare the appropriate parent records, ownership information and board authorisation in addition to the operating plan.
The authority publishes activity and other amendment services. New activities remain subject to approval, so review the effect on facilities, external permissions and fees before offering them.
