The first partner for the Future Hub is MIT’s Senseable City Lab, a famous research group that studies how cities, people, and technology work together. They will work on research, studying data, and sharing ideas to solve problems cities face and find better solutions.
His Excellency Mohamed Ali Al Shorafa, Chairman of DMT, said that as Abu Dhabi grows, it is important to use technology to help people, businesses, and the community. He said the Future Hub is a big step in keeping Abu Dhabi a world leader in modern city planning.
The Future Hub will focus on helping the city grow, making life better for its people, and creating a better place to live. It will work with top organizations around the world to do research, develop solutions for city problems, and train DMT workers to learn new skills and keep improving.
His Excellency Fady El Borno, Executive Director of Strategic Affairs at DMT, said the Future Hub is a big step toward building a world-class city. He said the Hub will find new ideas to improve life in Abu Dhabi and create a plan that other cities can follow.
This project shows DMT’s promise to provide great services and infrastructure to help Abu Dhabi grow. The Future Hub will also work with more groups to focus on smart and sustainable cities. This will help Abu Dhabi stay a global leader in city planning and create a better future for everyone.
