What 360Holding does

360° Three Sixty Holding is a private diversified investment and management holding company headquartered in the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), United Arab Emirates, founded in 2007. The group operates as a platform spanning four distinct sectors: Education, Construction, Fund Management, and Property Management, each housed in a dedicated wholly-owned subsidiary. Its education arm is LFJM (Lycée Français Jean-Michel), a K-12 French-curriculum school in Dubai approved by the French Ministry of National Education and partnered with the Agency of French Education Abroad (AEFE). The construction vertical combines 360 Design, a premier architectural and design firm, with GoTech, a construction and fit-out contractor, enabling the holding to control the entire project lifecycle from concept through delivery.

The fund management business is Tharaa Limited, a UAE-based real estate private equity firm established in 2024 that devises investment strategies and deploys equity commitments across GCC countries on behalf of institutional investor partners. The property management arm, 360 Living, is a lifestyle-driven real estate concept created in Dubai to reimagine modern urban living. Revenue mechanics are not publicly disclosed, but value is generated through school tuition (LFJM), design and construction contract revenue (360 Design and GoTech), management fees and performance carry on deployed capital (Tharaa), and property management/related fees (360 Living). The holding is led by CEO Morten Sorensen, CFO Huw Hughes, and President Captain Sultan Bin Obaid, and employs between 51 and 100 people across its subsidiaries. The group currently operates only in the United Arab Emirates, with Tharaa representing the most explicit stated intent to extend activity across the broader GCC.
