ABOUT US
DRAGONFIRE is a Dubai-based TEAM BUILDING company specializing in Dragon Boating and outdoor team building events for corporate clients.
Based at the Sheraton Jumeirah Beach Resort, we offer engaging and memorable team building programs in a beautiful outdoor setting. At the heart of our events is Dragon Boating, our signature team building activity. This unique and exciting watersport is an ideal way to get all members of your team “onboard” working together towards a common goal.
For those who prefer to stay closer to the shore, you can enjoy our other team building programs under the sunny skies; our Beach Olympics, our Treasure Hunt or Build-a-Boat.
As well as being great fun, our team building programs are designed with key business outcomes in mind; to develop stronger teams through energizing, motivating and inspiring activities that focus on communication, cooperation and problem solving skills.
DragonFire will work with you to ensure the right team building program for your corporate event. We provide customized programs to suit each client’s requirements that can vary in length and include one or several of our team building activities.
DragonFire's onsite facilitation team will ensure a professional, well organized and seamless team building event. Additionally, we will coordinate with the Sheraton’s food and beverage department on your behalf, or put you directly in touch with the banqueting team.
Our philosophy at DragonFire is simple; we combine our team building expertise with our passion for what we do to deliver memorable and meaningful experiences that exceed our client’s expectations. We believe strongly in meticulous planning and attention to detail so that all aspects of your event run smoothly and successfully.
And most importantly, we aim to ensure that each individual comes away feeling engaged, energized and more a part of their team than when they arrived.
