Khaleej Times, the UAE's renowned English daily newspaper and multimedia platform in the region, is introducing new digital offerings.

Founded in 1978, the UAE's first and longest-running English daily, is known and respected in the region for its journalism, trust, and credibility. Today it has evolved into one of the leading and most trusted multimedia platforms in the region.

The editorial strategy, led by Editor-in-Chief Michael Jabri-Pickett, has embarked on several new digital editorial driven initiatives in the past 100 days, all designed to enhance the community and audience experience.

“Part of our mission is to significantly increase our digital revenue, and some of the recent digital innovation at Khaleej Times contribute directly to our growth strategy,” said Charles Yardley, Chief Executive Officer.

The recent redesign of khaleejtimes.com is aimed at enhancing the user experience with a modern, intuitive interface. It promises to offer streamlined navigation, faster load times, and a mobile-first approach, enabling readers to enjoy a seamless and engaging experience across all devices.

KT Arabic brings a new chapter, building on KT’s rich legacy and further extending its reach at a pivotal time of rapid change in the Arabic speaking world.

“As a UAE-based publication, it was important for our leadership that we reflect the language of the region,” said Jabri-Pickett.

KT Plus, another recent launch, has opened the doors to the Gen Z demographic and has already garnered a strong following and launched a series of new KT+ original shows. There are exciting plans to roll this new franchise out across the other platforms within the evolving suite of advertising products at Khaleej Times.

With these exciting new offerings, Khaleej Times invites its readers to explore the revamped digital landscape and join a vibrant community of engaged audiences.
