INDUSTRIES WE CARE ABOUT

Building in sectors where better outcomes matter.

Our interests reflect areas of real strategic importance in the UAE. We develop opportunities with experienced practitioners, operators and specialists rather than pretending we know every industry from the outside.

FIELDS OF INTEREST

Where specialist knowledge
can unlock better technology.

These are themes for discovery, not claims that specific products are needed. Every opportunity must be tested with its intended users and buyers.

01 / AGRITECHFood systems

Smarter, more resilient agriculture.

We want to work with growers, food scientists, agronomists and supply-chain specialists on practical problems in resource efficiency, agricultural operations and sustainable food systems.

Questions worth investigating: How can growers use water and inputs more efficiently? Which farm workflows could benefit from affordable decision tools?
02 / EDTECHInclusion

More useful tools for learning and support.

We are interested in education technology and additional learning needs, including autism and SEND support, built in partnership with educators, therapists, families and people with lived experience.

Questions worth investigating: Where are communication gaps between schools and families? Can specialist workflows be made easier without reducing individualised care?
03 / HEALTHTECHPrevention

Helping people act earlier.

We want to explore preventive health and early intervention, with an interest in diabetes risk awareness, support pathways and practical tools that improve patient engagement.

Questions worth investigating: What prevents timely screening or follow-up? How can clinicians and patients stay better connected?
04 / HEALTHTECHMental wellbeing

Care that's more accessible and connected.

Working with qualified professionals, we want to consider technology that improves navigation, access, continuity and coordination of mental health support, without making unsupported clinical claims.

Questions worth investigating: Where do people struggle to find appropriate help? What administrative burdens keep clinicians from patient care?
05 / CLIMATE & WATERResource systems

Improving how vital resources are managed.

We are interested in responsible uses of data, monitoring and workflow tools that help organisations improve water efficiency, resource visibility and climate resilience.

Questions worth investigating: Which operational decisions lack reliable data? What affordable tools can help resource-intensive businesses?
06 / ASSISTIVE TECHAccessibility

Greater independence at every stage of life.

We would like to explore technologies supporting accessibility, ageing, independent living and better coordination between people receiving support and their carers.

Questions worth investigating: Which routine barriers could be reduced? What would make support easier for individuals and caregivers?
