The first phase of a major initiative to encourage innovation in Dubai’s government sector has now concluded.

‘Dubai 10X’ has seen several government entities come up with futuristic projects that have helped transform services.

It has also empowered their employees with the skills to adapt to rapid changes in technology.

While announcing the conclusion of the first phase, His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Chairman of The Executive Council of Dubai and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Dubai Future Foundation (DFF), said 'Dubai 10X' has achieved massive leaps in disruptive government services.

He also stressed the importance of following up on the efforts made through the projects to build on the quality of government work.

The initiative is now gearing up for its second phase, which will further showcase the emirate’s futuristic vision.
