Dubai continues to expand its investments in future technologies by integrating self-driving applications into vital economic sectors. This is part of a strategy aimed at boosting the efficiency of supply chains and enhancing the emirate's competitiveness as a global hub for logistics and innovation. This effort aligns perfectly with the goals of the Dubai Economic Agenda D33, which aims to double the volume of foreign trade by 2033. In this exciting context, the Dubai Future Foundation, in collaboration with the international company OXA, announced the launch of the Future of Autonomous Logistics Lab. The goal is to develop and test solutions based on the latest self-driving and artificial intelligence technologies to support various logistics and service activities. This will further solidify Dubai's position as a global center for developing and implementing smart transport and service solutions. This new lab is part of Dubai's broader research, development, and innovation ecosystem. It will focus on creating solutions based on research, experimentation, and testing to explore the most promising technical opportunities both locally and globally. The lab will also work on increasing the productivity of economic sectors and innovating new operational pathways that add greater economic value to logistics activities.
