UAE’s technology enabler, Abu Dhabi Digital Authority (ADDA) has penned a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with American technology firm Intel towards extending the strategic partnership and promoting cooperation, particularly in the field of accelerating digital transformation in Abu Dhabi.
The MoU was endorsed remotely by Dr. Abdulla Alkendi, Executive Director – Technology & Policies, ADDA, and Taha Khalifa, Intel’s CCG Sales Director, EMEA.
The strategic association aims to improve cooperation in executing new initiatives and projects associated with innovation and future technologies, in addition to sharing experiences, exchanging know-how and conducting studies that will assist the initiatives of ADDA’s ‘Artificial Intelligence Lab’, expediting the application of high-impact methods related to artificial intelligence technologies.
It also intends to swap expertise, best practices, and innovative solutions, improving the assistance provided to ADDA to permit the Authority to profit from Intel’s Innovation Centre in Dubai and offer new opportunities to its strategic partners.
ADDA will benefit from Intel’s expertise in the field of innovative technology, prominently in the area of artificial intelligence, AI, video analytics, transformation at the workplace, and locally focused ‘edge computing’.
