        H.E. Bin Touq affirmed that the UAE and Canada enjoy strong economic relations across a
        range of vital sectors, which continue to expand. He added that both nations share a common

        vision on the importance of AI, advanced technology, and innovation as key drivers of the new
        economy, which paves the way for broader prospects for collaboration in these strategic fields.



        During the meeting, H.E. Bin Touq reviewed various national initiatives approved by the UAE to
        support the integration of AI across diverse economic sectors, thereby strengthening its

        position as a leading global hub for the new economy. Among these is the “Future 100”
        initiative for startups and entrepreneurial projects in new economy sectors. H.E. further

        highlighted the UAE’s experience in developing the National Economic Registry (Growth) – a
        federal digital platform and an AI-powered, comprehensive database launched by the Ministry

        of Economy and Tourism to assist investors, companies, and entrepreneurs in exploring the
        business environment across more than 2,000 economic activities. This initiative enables
        companies to study markets, make decisions, and manage their commercial activities.
