UAE Unveils Its First Centralized R&D Portal
This centralized portal will streamline research efforts across government agencies, educational institutions, and industry partners.
Abu Dhabi’s Advanced Technology Research Council (ATRC) has launched an initiative poised to enhance the research landscape in the UAE, the UAE Research Map. In collaboration with the Ministry of Education and the Emirates Research and Development Council (ERDC), this centralized portal will streamline research efforts across government agencies, educational institutions, and industry partners.[1]
The UAE Research Map serves as a comprehensive platform, offering insights into the country's R&D ecosystem, funding opportunities, training programs, and career prospects. Moreover, it aims to enhance innovation by providing access to valuable resources such as UAE publications, researchers, and R&D centers.
With a focus on fostering intellectual property opportunities and promoting collaboration, the portal invites universities and entrepreneurs to contribute to its growing database.
Future enhancements include an expanded publications section, an expert finder feature, and a commercialization platform to facilitate the transition of ideas from lab to market.
