Kevin McKenzie

Kevin McKenzie’s journey started with a simple but confronting realization: building and growing businesses in high-tax jurisdictions like his home country, Canada, while losing nearly half of what you earn to taxation confines both growth and freedom. What began as introspection into international tax systems quickly turned into a personal mission to find a smarter, fully compliant way forward.

That search led Kevin to Dubai – not as an escape, but as a strategic and deliberate decision that reshaped his life as an entrepreneur at a young age and later helped thousands of founders and professionals make meaningful changes in theirs.

After relocating in 2022, Kevin began helping fellow entrepreneurs navigate the same path he had just taken. What started as informal guidance soon revealed a broken industry dominated by old-school setup firms. Opaque processes, hidden costs, language barriers for Western clients, poor communication, and a lack of accountability were common challenges.

Rather than accepting the status quo, Kevin built something different. Co-founding GenZone with his partner, Shayan Nasiri, he focused on one principle above all: clarity. Clear expectations. Clear timelines. Clear compliance. Every mistake became a system improvement. Every client experience shaped a better process.

Today, GenZone has helped hundreds of entrepreneurs and investors relocate, establish businesses, and structure their affairs legally and efficiently in the UAE. With deep experience across business setup, real estate, and compliant crypto frameworks, Kevin helps high-net-worth individuals secure residency, protect capital, and build long-term freedom beyond borders.
