Brutal Pre-Mortem

Founders will quickly go bankrupt by underestimating the astronomical energy costs required to maintain sub-zero pool temperatures in Dubai's extreme heat, coupled with the high cost of specialized labor and imported cooling technology. Failure to secure high-margin, bespoke projects and instead competing on price in a saturated luxury market will rapidly deplete capital, leading to insolvency.
