World’s Most Funded Kickstarter Project Arrives in MEA as eufyMake UV Printer E1 Targets Booming Creative Sector
eufyMake, the innovative creative tool brand from Anker Innovations, today announced its official entry into the Middle East and Africa (MEA) market, a move set to empower the region’s burgeoning creative economy. The launch aligns with the ambitious national agendas of the UAE and Saudi Arabia, which are fostering innovation and entrepreneurship as key pillars of their economic diversification strategies. The company will mark its regional debut by showcasing the revolutionary eufyMake UV Printer E1 at the FESPA Middle East exhibition from January 13-15, 2026, with full market availability planned for the end of March 2026.
The MEA region is experiencing a significant transformation. As part of its Creative Economy Strategy, Dubai is on track to double the creative industries’ contribution to its GDP to 5% by 2026. This ambition is supported by a robust investment landscape, with Dubai attracting 971 foreign direct investment projects in the sector in 2024, valued at AED 18.86 billion. Similarly, Saudi Arabia’s creative industries sector is projected to grow from a $20 billion market in 2025 to $48 billion by 2030, fueled by a thriving ecosystem of startups and SMEs that saw 80,000 new businesses registered in the second quarter of 2025 alone.
“The MEA region is not just a new market for us, it is a region that is actively building its future, and we are here to be a part of that journey,” said Jeffrrey Liu, General Manager, Anker Innovation, Middle East & Africa. “With the UAE and Saudi Arabia’s visionary leadership driving a vibrant creative and entrepreneurial landscape, the eufyMake E1 is more than just a product – it is a tool for the next generation of innovators, artists, and business owners. We are incredibly confident in the regional market opportunity and are committed to supporting the growth of the local creative communities by making professional-grade technology accessible to all.”
The eufyMake E1, the world’s first personal 3D-texture UV printer, has already garnered global acclaim, becoming the most funded project in Kickstarter history with over $44 million raised. This success highlights the universal demand for accessible, high-quality creative technology.
