Mohamed Ali Al Shorafa, Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development, said, “The progression of these initiatives to their next phases signifies the success they have achieved in helping startups. We will continue on this journey to ensure innovators have access to all the tools and resources they need to make impactful change in Abu Dhabi.”
