  • FUTURE CITIES Trade Delegation UAE the Future Is Now…
    Strategic Partners: FUTURE CITIES Trade Delegation UAE The Future is Now… 1 FUTURE CITIES TRADE DELEGATION UAE BRIEFING PACK AND PROGRAMME 20th to 23nd MARCH 2017 Objective of the Trade Delegation The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is at the forefront of redefining architectural design and leading the way for the future today. The trade delegation will explore the possibilities and provide a detailed analysis of futuristic concepts in design that exist alongside groundbreaking projects. The two-day program has been carefully devised directly with the experts behind this growth and mastery of the future. Delegates will be inspired by the possibilities that exist now and in the future, and learn how architectural obstacles have been overcome. Innovative Design Since its independence in 1971, the UAE has come a long way. It has invested heavily to break traditional barriers with revolutionary architectural design, and to redefine what is possible in construction. With its sci-fi-like cityscape, the UAE is emerging as a desert metropolis well beyond its era. When it comes to architecture, there's no denying the UAE is home to some of the world’s most iconic and advanced buildings. Technological Initiatives Dubai is already one step ahead with a number of innovation-led initiatives announced in 2016. According to His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai, 25 per cent of Dubai's buildings are to be 3D- printed by 2030. With the launch of the Dubai Future Accelerators program, the world's top innovators are invited to help develop concepts in the city, with the focus on development, research, cutting-edge technologies and start-ups.

    Dubai 2020: Dreamscapes, Mega Malls and Spaces of Post-Modernity Dubai’s hosting of the 2020 Expo further authenticates its status as an example of an emerging Arab city that displays modernity through sequences of fragmented urban- scapes, and introvert spaces. The 2020 Expo is expected to reinforce the image of Dubai as a city of hybrid architectures and new forms of urbanism, marked by technologically advanced infrastructural systems. This paper revisits Dubai’s spaces of the spectacle such as the Burj Khalifa and themed mega malls, to highlight the power of these spaces of repre- sentation in shaping Dubai’s image and identity. INTRODUCTION MOHAMED EL AMROUSI Initially, a port city with an Indo-Persian mercantile community, Dubai’s devel- Abu Dhabi University opment along the Creek or Khor Dubai shaped a unique form of city that is con- stantly reinventing itself.

Dubai’s Abu Dhabi University interest to make headlines of the international media fostered major investment in an endless vocabulary of forms and fragments to create architectural specta- cles.
