Dubai is Quietly Building the Future of the Automotive Industry

When I first arrived in Dubai in 2008, the city was a place of bold contrasts. It was grappling with the fallout of the global financial crisis, yet there remained a quiet, determined confidence in its future. Even then, you could sense that Dubai wouldn't just recover — it would reimagine what recovery looked like. Today, that prediction has come true. Dubai has transformed into one of the world's most dynamic testbeds for mobility innovation. What was once a market focused on car ownership is now a launchpad for pioneering ideas in sustainability, digitalisation, and smart transport. This evolution isn't incidental — it's intentional, enabled by a city that's wired for vision and progress. Dubai's geographic location has long made it a global gateway. But what truly sets the city apart is its mindset: an unwavering belief in building the future before others dare to imagine it. The Roads and Transport Authority's plan to introduce air taxis by 2026 is a case in point. What may sound like science fiction elsewhere is already moving into operational planning here, converting a 45-minute commute into a 12-minute airborne journey. Beneath these headlines is a deeper reality: a regulatory and business ecosystem that supports ambition. Programmes like the Dubai Economic Agenda D33 and Vision 2030 aren't just slogans; they are action plans that prioritize diversification, sustainability, and the seamless integration of technology into everyday life. For the automotive sector, this means Dubai offers something rare — a real-world lab where electric, hydrogen, and autonomous mobility solutions can be trialled, refined, and scaled with minimal red tape. At AGMC, we've experienced this transformation firsthand. As the official importer for BMW, MINI, and Rolls-Royce in the region, we've seen electric vehicle (EV) adoption gain strong momentum — thanks to a blend of consumer enthusiasm, progressive regulation, and business commitment. Today, more than 47,000 green vehicles are registered in the emirate, with fully electric cars making up the majority. Still, the path forward has its challenges. EV infrastructure remains a work in progress. While many villa residents enjoy home charging, the next wave of growth depends on scaling solutions for apartments and urban clusters. The public sector is expanding its charging network, but accelerating adoption will require coordinated efforts across government, utility providers, automakers, and real estate developers. There are also questions around EV residual value. As the market matures, the secondary resale ecosystem will need time — and data — to develop. But Dubai's unique mix of early adopters and tech-forward consumers means we're generating insights faster than many more established markets. What inspires me most, though, is the human story behind the innovation. Dubai is a global talent magnet, bringing together engineers, designers, software developers, and strategists from across continents. It is this cross-pollination of perspectives that fuels meaningful progress — not just in what we build, but how we build it. From hydrogen-powered fleets to connected mobility ecosystems and AI-optimised traffic flows, the future of transport is not on the horizon — it's already taking shape. And while flying cars may remain in the realm of fantasy, Dubai's air taxis suggest we're closer than we think. Ultimately, Dubai teaches us a vital lesson: the future doesn't just arrive — it is built, deliberately and ambitiously. And there are few places in the world where that drive to build is more evident, or more effective, than here.

Saudi sovereign fund PIF launches new company to run Expo 2030

Saudi Arabia's $925 billion sovereign wealth fund PIF said on Thursday it had launched a new unit that will be responsible to build and operate the facilities for the Expo 2030 world fair. The company will be called Expo 2030 Riyadh Company, PIF said in a statement to Reuters, adding that the masterplan for the project covered an area of 6 million square metres to the north of the city, close to the future King Salman International Airport. Expo 2030 is set to take place the same year Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman's economic diversification plan culminates. Under the programme, dubbed Vision 2030, the Gulf country is pouring billions in sectors including tourism to wean its economy off oil revenues. Expo 2030 represents another large-scale building project that the kingdom has committed to on a strict deadline, even as its economy faces lower oil prices. Oil prices have jumped to mid-seventies in recent weeks as investors weighed the chance of supply disruptions from the Iran-Israel conflict. Saudi Arabia is committed to hosting several other large international events in succession, each of which require significant spending on construction and development, including the 2029 Asian Winter Games and the 2034 World Cup. Expo 2030 Riyadh is projected to attract more than 40 million visits and, once operational, it is expected to contribute around $5.6 billion to Saudi Arabia's GDP, PIF said.
