The two panel discussions included are Road Map to Building the Happiest City on the Planet and Megatrends that are Driving Today’s Innovation & Redefining Business Models.

The Smart Dubai Office Blockchain Challenge is another startling example of innovation in the city. Conducted in partnership with global innovation network 1776, the Dubai Blockchain Challenge will welcome 20 global startups to compete and pitch in their ideas to a discerning audience of investors, experts, private and public institutions. This amazing session, to be held on May 22, will not only fuel new ideas as to how startups can innovate across industries but will also contribute to the creation of a global and regional blockchain industry and its strategies.

There was a growing interest in the concept of Big Data and its power to detail and analyze customer habits and trends. Both cyber-crime and cyber security were on the rise, trying to outdo each other. And how can we forget a lot, the all-powerful ‘Internet of Things’ that can connect everything from your refrigerator to your lighting and maintaining the security of your home.
Tech predictions look at an increased integration of artificial intelligence, virtual reality and 3D printing across all sectors.

Innovation & Tech, a leading regional bi-monthly magazine, covers the latest innovations, trends, events and technology concepts that simplify processes, enhance efficiency and drive change in business.

There are several reasons why the generation of new ideas can be critical to business success. Although every organisation will have its own priorities and sector-specific issues to balance, businesses that fail to innovate run the risk of losing ground to competitors, losing key staff or operating inefficiently. Innovation is the key difference between market leaders and followers.

Innovation & Tech uncovers the answers of tomorrow through cutting-edge interviews of global thought leaders and futurists. It provides a comprehensive view of ingenious solutions and approaches changing the business paradigm.

Our readers gain valuable expertise and insights into technology that thought leaders deem reliable.

We thank you for your support and hope you enjoy this issue.

Block chain technology is fast emerging as a key area of innovation and generating huge interest, not just globally but also in Dubai.Initially confused with an exclusive offshoot of the Bitcoin movement, Block chain technology has a range of business applications beyond finance, offering immense potential in several other applications in a variety of sectors and areas.......

With this edition of Innovation & Tech, we are pleased to highlight a trend in its early stages of adoption in the MENA region. Mobility used to mean having a phone and access to email, contacts and web browsing, and little else. But in advanced markets, things are changing with almost a third of the workforce now “anytime, anywhere information workers” who use three or more devices. In the MENA market, we are seeing accelerating interest in the development and use of custom enterprise mobile apps, transforming the way in which organizations work.

This edition of Innovation & Tech brings you a feature story that is hot off the coals from the guruspeak at World Economic Forum at Davos. Artificial intelligence is the key ingredient of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, which according to our global leaders, “will fundamentally alter the way we live, work, and relate to one another. In its scale, scope, and complexity, the transformation will be unlike anything humankind has experienced before.” Another key ingredient is the Internet of Things and we examine the state of play of both these concepts as they relate to our life and work in our region.

We have focused, in this issue, on smart ways for SMEs to operate in a cost constrained environment. We have a feature on how cost issues will drive companies to adopt cloud computing and ways in which a robust IoT infrastructure can drive revenue and value for business. On the innovation front, we bring you the story of Cwikwin, a local app developed for the marketing industry and of Cary!, the UAE’s online marketplace sans the pesky ads. We also devote a considerable piece on the maturing Bitcoin economy and how that needs to be factored in by regional and local businesses going forward.
