DUBAI, UAE, Feb. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DXB Unheard returns for its second season, fronted by award-winning singer and Britain's Got Talent presenter, Alesha Dixon. After a 2025 standout debut, this exciting new series is back featuring stories of both Emiratis and residents - that call Dubai their home, and spotlights some of the remarkable individuals who represent the spirit of the city.
Across the 10-part series, Alesha meets pioneers, game changers and industry leaders, from inspirational athlete Fahima Falaknaz - the first Emirati woman to compete in an international boxing tournament wearing her hijab - to trailblazing Emirati soul artists Hamdan and Arqam Al Abri.
DXB Unheard also features changemakers like family-led initiative Team AngelWolf, who are redefining inclusion in endurance sports, Emirati freediver and marine conservationist Mohammad Al Falasi, and culinary innovator Tom Arnel, plus global celebrities PGA Tour professional Tommy Fleetwood and international popstar Steps' Lisa Scott-Lee, who tell their stories of why and how they have built a life in Dubai with their families.
Athlete Fahima Falaknaz says: "Boxing was never about proving people wrong - it was about proving to myself what was possible. Growing up in Dubai gave me the space, support, and belief to pursue this dream. Competing in my hijab was a proud moment. I hope it shows women and girls everywhere that there is space for them in sport, on their own terms."
Host Alesha Dixon adds: "Many people think they've got Dubai figured out: skyscrapers, bright lights and all that glitz and glamour. But spend some time here and you'll feel something deeper - the pull of heritage and the energy of reinvention. In this new season, I get to introduce listeners to some of the voices that make Dubai truly unique.

With Mino, Omni becomes the first AI-native HR and payroll platform built for multi-country teams in Asia.
SINGAPORE, June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Omni HR today launched Mino, the first AI agent built on unified HR and payroll data for multi-country teams in Asia. Available now in early access to Omni customers, beginning with analytics and recruitment and rolling out across every stage of the employee lifecycle Omni manages.
Omni is the all-in-one HR and multi-country payroll platform for Asia, running hiring, people operations, performance, and payroll in one place. Most HR software in the region was built for a single country, a single function, and a previous generation of technology — leaving teams to stitch together systems and the data fragmented across all of them. Omni's own State of AI in HR report found that fragmented data, not AI capability, is what holds HR teams in Asia back. Because Omni stores employee data in one centralized system, Mino gets the full context of a business that most agents will never have access to.
Mino, Omni's Super Agent for Work
Mino answers questions, analyzes data, and takes action in plain language, always scoped to the access each user already holds. Ask it to surface a candidate shortlist, turn headcount data into a dashboard, or pull an employee's job history — and it returns the answer or takes the action, without switching tools or chasing an admin. It is designed to reason across every module Omni runs, getting more capable as each additional module comes online, spanning people data, compensation, payroll, and performance. It is an intelligence layer across the whole platform, not a chatbot sitting beside it. As the modules connect, Mino coordinates specialized sub-agents that work across HR, payroll, IT, and beyond — giving teams an always-on capability that operates around the clock.
Built on Enterprise-Grade Security
Mino operates entirely within each company's existing role-based permissions. Every user sees only what they are already authorized to access, and every action Mino takes is logged. As new modules and sub-agents become available, the same permission model governs them. Access does not expand because the agent does. Mino is built to meet the security and compliance standards that enterprise teams are already held to.
"Every HR platform will eventually offer AI features and agentic workflows. What makes Mino different is that the data, the compliance logic, and the security model were purpose-built to support it, not adapted from a system designed for something else."
Brian Ip, CEO, Omni HR
Mino is available now in early access for Omni HR customers. To see it, book a demo at omnihr.co.
