It represents a significant step in the UAE\u2019s efforts to apply Artificial Intelligence for societal benefit and highlights how collaboration between technology leaders and public institutions can shape safer, smarter and more sustainable cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lieutenant Colonel Hassan Al Kathiri, Representative of the Abu Dhabi Civil Defence Authority, and Adel Alsharji, Chief Operating Officer, Presight, signed the co-operation agreement in the presence of HE Salem Al Dhaheri, Director General of the Abu Dhabi Civil Defence Authority, and Thomas Pramotedham, Chief Executive Officer, Presight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lt. Col Hassan Ali AlKathiri, Director of Strategic Planning and Organizational Development, said: \u201cPartnering with Presight reflects our ongoing efforts to strengthen emergency readiness through Digital Transformation. By integrating Artificial Intelligence into our operations, we can enhance response capabilities, anticipate potential risks and ensure a higher standard of safety and protection for the community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through this co-operation agreement, Presight and ADCDA will explore AI-driven solutions that transform how emergency operations are planned, managed and executed. Areas of focus include predictive dispatching, intelligent route optimisation, early fire detection, real-time simulation and data-driven risk mapping, each designed to improve decision-making and accelerate response times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Adel Alsharji said: \u201cSafety and preparedness are at the heart of every Smart City. Our collaboration with the Abu Dhabi Civil Defence Authority demonstrates how Applied Intelligence can transform emergency response, predictive risk management and community protection. Together, we aim to build a next-generation ecosystem for public safety that harnesses data, AI and innovation to make Abu Dhabi one of the safest and smartest cities in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The co-operation agreement supports ADCDA\u2019s ambition to become a technology-driven safety authority, reinforcing the UAE\u2019s vision to leverage Artificial Intelligence across key public service sectors. By combining Presight\u2019s AI expertise with ADCDA\u2019s operational excellence, the two organisations aim to strengthen every stage of emergency management, from prevention and preparedness to real-time response and recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Presight\u2019s collaboration with ADCDA builds on its experience supporting the UAE\u2019s emergency and crisis management ecosystem, including work with the National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA). Through such initiatives, Presight continues to enable government entities to deliver smarter, faster and more resilient services that protect lives and property.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presight, a global leader in applied AI for intelligent systems, has signed a co-operation agreement with the Abu Dhabi Civil Defence Authority (ADCDA) to advance the use of Artificial Intelligence in public safety and emergency response.
