The initiative’s many specialisations support the goals of economic diversification, which include broadening the national economy’s base and diversifying sources of overall income.
The new initiatives aim to promote the UAE’s economy, which is a key national goal, to ensure a good life for citizens and residents, double FDI, and strengthen the UAE’s reputation as a global incubator for talents and investors. They want to turn the UAE into a comprehensive hub for creativity and innovation in all sectors and areas, promoting it as a country of opportunity and a destination for people looking for a worldwide testbed for ambitious and innovative ideas.
All efforts are aimed at building a knowledge economy and transforming the UAE into a testing ground for innovative ideas and projects that will help the UAE become a successful global nation.
