Duplays

Duplays is a Social Media and Sports startup based in the United Arab Emirates, founded in 2007. The company's slogan, "Connecting communities through sport," encapsulates its mission to engage and unite individuals through sports and social activities. From organising sport leagues and events to promoting employee engagement through wellness programs, Duplays has attracted over 100,000 members across 5 cities. With its inception dating back to 2007, Duplays has continually expanded, offering a diverse range of activities including nightly leagues, weekend tournaments, high-profile events, and recreational sports for all ages, cultures, and skill levels. The company's philosophy emphasizes that meeting new people and staying fit should not be confined to traditional methods, such as clubbing or gym memberships. Instead, Duplays strives to foster healthier, more social, and interconnected communities through sports. The startup's success has been acknowledged through Seed Round investment received on 01 May 2012, with BECO Capital being the investor. This backing has provided a significant boost to Duplays' ability to expand its reach and impact. Additionally, for those interested in bringing Duplays to their city, the company offers an affiliate program through its website. In summary, Duplays has effectively leveraged its offerings of sport leagues, employee engagement programs, and events to foster community engagement. Its overarching aim to create healthier and more connected communities through sports aligns with the growing emphasis on well-being and social interaction. This aligns with current societal priorities and presents an attractive opportunity for continued growth and impact.
