By building national talent, expanding opportunities in the digital sector, and opening new avenues for economic growth, the projects aim to drive sustainable progress and development across various sectors.
Announcing the initiative Sheikh Hamdan said, "Our strategies in Dubai are not merely aimed at keeping pace with global developments, but also on leading them," His Highness added. "The projects we are launching today will contribute to building a strong, sustainable digital economy that fulfills our vision, and aligns with the aspirations of the Emirati people to achieve the highest levels of excellence.
"We firmly believe that the future belongs to those who make it today, not tomorrow, and the momentum of progress waits for no one. Our goal is to support the UAE's strategic objectives and elevate its role in driving global development, while positioning Dubai as a leading international hub for future technologies and a launchpad for startups worldwide aiming to drive transformative change. We will continue to empower entrepreneurs and innovators, providing them with all the support needed to achieve their dreams."
The initiatives also seek to strengthen Dubai's position as a global leader in innovation and technology, while advancing the goals of the Dubai Economic Agenda D33 to double the city's GDP by 2033 and establish it as one of the world's top three urban economies.
The innovative projects span diverse areas, including enhancing government operations, investing in national talent, building Emirati capabilities, supporting startup growth, and preserving the aesthetic ambience of Dubai's urban landscape within a sustainable framework.
Sheikh Hamdan emphasised that transforming government assets into innovative commercial projects represents a major step forward in solidifying Dubai's status as a global economic powerhouse. H.H. stated: "Building a strong and sustainable digital economy requires us to invest in our young people, as they are the driving force behind realising Dubai's ambitious vision."
