In 2017, the UAE and World Economic Forum (WEF) unveiled a groundbreaking report titled “Global State of the Future” in Davos.

Mohammed Al Gergawi, the Minister for Cabinet Affairs and the Future, and Klaus Schwab, WEF founder and executive chairman, announced the new study of trends in science, technology and communications.

Backed by research from independent experts, the report highlighted developments in seven sectors affected by technology change – energy, education, transport, space, health and water.

“These studies will serve as a reference for us as we strive to accurately forecast the trends of the future,” H.E. Al Gergawi said.
