About Hydra Properties
Hydra Properties is a privately owned company, established in 2006 in Abu Dhabi , the capital of UAE. The company was established with a vision to provide the UAE, Middle East and the world with unprecedented development concepts which are reflected in the company's various landmark projects. Since inception, the company has embraced the best international building criteria and has introduced fresh concepts in design and materials.

At Hydra Properties there is a firm belief in the humanizing factor. Real estate is not only about space, steel and concrete but is actually a living organism. That is why we always aspire to create spaces that nurture and accommodate the human side of real estate.

Hydra Properties does not only see itself as only a real estate development company.

Hydra Properties has clear social commitments and responsibilities. Hydra never misses an opportunity to give back to society through its endless community activities in the areas of cultural awareness, support to sport activities and providing major community service through its active and ongoing role in supporting health, education and social institutions.

Hydra Properties has rapidly expanded in the UAE with several mega projects in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Relentless efforts have allowed it to expand globally into Mexico, where it has developed 'Hydra Waves', one of the finest luxury projects in North America.

The SwissOpenAir Concept is a unique non-linear program designed to stretch people's horizon's and promote breakthrough visions and utilizing multiple venues to showcase, discuss and "connect" important ideas in arts, design, business, film, technology, shows, education, etc.. The SwissOpenAir Concept is designed to appeal to a broad cross-section of people - with top movies and shows selected for their expectation, achievements, and their ability to communicate to a wide-ranging audience.

An important value of the SwissOpenAir Concept is its accessibility. Strong support from sponsors allows the event to be priced at a level that provides for participation by a large diverse audience including students and young people. At nightfall, the unforgettable show experience begins. The centerpiece of this experience is our giant screen technology (over 400 square meters). Lying unobtrusively across the water or land during daylight hours, at nightfall the screen is hydraulically raised over four minutes to stand six stores high. This impressive visual experience is supported by 32 speaker digital surround sound.

To complete the experience our film programs are selected and positioned as a festival of film. Typically a season will feature premiere, recent release films titles, spanning a range of genres and market positions; from comedy to thriller, and block-buster to art-house, and sharing a common suitability to the «Open Air environment»
