Group CEO of 7X, and Kong Qi, CEO of Zelostech, in the presence of senior officials from 7X, EMX,
and Zelostech. Following the ceremony, the 7X and EMX delegation visited Zelostech’s vehicle
production line, gaining in-depth insights into the company’s core competencies and various
manufacturing processes.
As part of the agreement, a joint venture (JV) will be established to deliver urban logistics solutions
by combining 7X’s expertise, network, and operational infrastructure, powered by its logistics arm,
EMX, with Zelostech’s advanced capabilities in autonomous system development and hardware-
software integration. In its initial phase, the venture will primarily support EMX’s delivery
operations, aiming to improve last-mile delivery efficiency and service quality, with plans to
gradually expand services to third parties in the UAE.
As the project progresses toward commercialisation and large-scale operations, the JV will
establish its regional headquarters in the UAE, serving regional players across the wider GCC and
Middle East. The aim is to establish a model ecosystem for autonomous logistics, supporting smart
city development and the sustainable transformation of transportation networks.
Tariq Al Wahedi, Acting Group CEO of 7X, stated: “This partnership marks a pivotal moment in our
mission to reshape the future of trade, transport and logistics across the region. By joining forces
with Zelostech, we are not only accelerating the development of an autonomous delivery
ecosystem, but also advancing shared priorities around smart mobility, sustainability, and
technological innovation. This initiative aligns with broader national visions, including the UAE
Green Agenda 2030, and reinforces our commitment to pioneering solutions that define the next
era of logistics.”
Kong Qi, CEO of Zelostech, remarked: “Our strategic alliance with 7X is a part of our broader
internationalisation vision. We firmly believe that by leveraging our combined capabilities, we can
build a robust autonomous delivery solution, personalised for the Middle Eastern market.
Furthermore, this is a remarkable achievement which will expedite the transition to smart and
sustainable mobility solutions in the region.”
Notably, the partnership marks the first-ever large-scale adoption of autonomous driving
technology within the Middle East’s dynamic logistics sector, elevating present benchmarks of
excellence. Furthermore, both entities view this project as a starting point for possible long-term
collaborations aimed at catalysing autonomous logistics and smart delivery systems innovation in
the region.
