Meanwhile, Dubai-based SEE Holding has unveiled the latest iteration of its sustainable city
model, which emphasises the role of technology and the well-being of its residents.

The Sustainable City 2.0 will be powered by 100 per cent clean energy, generating and
optimising electricity with AI to ensure maximum efficiency, according to a video presentation at

the Aim Congress.

The initiative is a follow-up to the original Sustainable City model, which has been built in Abu
Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah and Yiti in Oman.

The city will be designed with car-free clusters that prioritise walking and cycling, "promoting a
healthier lifestyle and stronger social connections”, SEE Holding said, with AI ensuring that e-

bikes, electric vehicles and autonomous shuttles are always available.

Waste from the city will be used as a resource and repurposed, recycled and converted into

energy, "avoiding landfill and driving a resilient circular economy”, it added.

SEE Holding did not provide a timeline for the construction and launch of the project, and where

it will be built.

"The Sustainable City 2.0 is … built around a clear purpose: to ensure people remain at the

centre of progress in a rapidly evolving, AI-driven world,” Faris Saeed, chairman and chief
executive of SEE Holding, said in a statement.
