UAE: MoIAT accelerates industrial decarbonization through ITTI expansion

ABU DHABI - The Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) today signed 4 memoranda of understanding (MoUs) at the UAE Climate Tech forum to accelerate decarbonisation and digitalisation in the manufacturing sector.

MoIAT signed MoUs with ADNOC, EDGE Group, KEZAD Group, and Dubai Industrial City to accelerate industrial decarbonisation through the implementation of the recently launched Industrial Technology Transformation Index (ITTI) in the manufacturing sector.

The ITTI was unveiled at the World Government Summit in February as a first-of-its-kind framework to measure digital maturity and sustainability in factories. The index promotes the integration of 4IR applications and sustainability best practices, providing companies with a roadmap for industrial transformation.

Dr. Sultan bin Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology, and Sarah Al Amiri, Minister of State for Public Education and Advanced Technology, witnessed the signings during the UAE Climate Tech forum, where 1,000 global policymakers, CEOs, experts, technology leaders, and investors gathered to collaborate in driving disruptive technologies and economic opportunities that accelerate decarbonization.

Tariq Al Hashmi, Director of Technology Adoption and Development at the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology, signed the MoUs on behalf of MoIAT.

The other signatories were Khaled Al Blooshi, Vice President of Digital Projects and Innovation at
