The GCC Super-Highway: How the Riyadh–Dubai–Muscat Corridor Is Removing the Final Barrier to EV Adoption

As urban charging density reaches maturity across the GCC, the next test for electric vehicles is long-distance travel. Along the 1,500 km Riyadh–Dubai–Muscat corridor, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Oman are building a coordinated network of ultra-fast chargers, grid upgrades, and regulatory mandates designed for reliability across borders and extreme climates. This corridor is emerging as the proving ground for electric mobility at Gulf scale.

Engineering for the Inferno: How the GCC Is Setting Global Standards for Heat-Resistant EVs

In the Gulf, electric vehicles are engineered for survival as much as efficiency. As temperatures push lithium-ion batteries beyond their comfort zone, the GCC is rewriting the rules of EV durability through stricter regulation, thermal management standards, and desert-tested design. What emerges is not a regional workaround, but a blueprint for electric mobility in a warming world.

The Skyward Shift: How Dubai Is Turning Airspace into Public Transport

In March 2026, Dubai will begin operating its airspace as a functional layer of public transport. Rather than expanding roads, the city is introducing a vertical mobility network that connects the airport, Downtown, Palm Jumeirah, and Dubai Marina through commercial flying taxis. The result is not just faster travel, but predictable movement in a city where time is an economic asset.

AI@70 in Dubai: Reframing the Next Seventy Years of Artificial Intelligence

Seventy years after artificial intelligence was first defined at Dartmouth College, the field has reached a turning point. Technical capability is accelerating, but global alignment on governance, ethics, and long-term responsibility is not. AI@70 in Dubai brings together researchers, policymakers, and institutional leaders to address this gap, extending the AI conversation beyond short policy cycles and toward a shared vision for the year 2096.

The Great Convergence: Why Intersec 2026 Redefines National Resilience

Intersec 2026 marks a clear shift in how national safety is designed and governed. As physical infrastructure and digital systems become inseparable, resilience now depends on coordination across agencies, technologies, and people. From long-range surveillance to public readiness initiatives, the UAE is presenting a model where anticipation replaces reaction and security is treated as a core function of national planning.

UAE Strategic Roadmap for Innovation in 2026

Q1 2026 marks a decisive shift in the UAE’s innovation strategy, from long-term planning to coordinated execution at scale. As artificial intelligence is embedded across governance, energy, security, and mobility, the country is operating less like a test market and more like a systems integrator. This analysis explains how the UAE is translating Vision 2031 into measurable economic impact, sovereign digital infrastructure, and operational resilience.
