Technology Innovation Institute

Technology Innovation Institute (TII) is a pioneering global research centre that focuses on applied research and new-age technology capabilities. It serves as the dedicated ‘applied research’ pillar of the Advanced Technology Research Council (ATRC). The institute has seven initial dedicated research centres in Quantum, Autonomous Robotics, Cryptography, Advanced Materials, Digital Security, Directed Energy and Secure Systems. TII's agile approach ensures that it is unhindered by the barriers and bureaucracy often associated with research and development. TII advances research rapidly through a defined research roadmap, approved research funding and state-of-the-art-facilities. By working with exceptional talent, universities, research institutions and industry partners from all over the world, TII connects an intellectual community and contributes to the creation of an R&D ecosystem in Abu Dhabi and the UAE. The institute pursues the development of breakthrough technologies that have practical use-cases and global impact. TII reinforces Abu Dhabi and the UAE’s status as a hub for innovation and contributes to the broader development of the knowledge-based economy. Working to serve government and business, we collaborate across the technological, scientific and philosophical disciplines to solve today’s greatest puzzles by augmenting world-leading human talent with ground-breaking artificial intelligence, machine and deep learning technologies. From the intersection of the world, right here in the UAE, we have partnered with internationally-renowned universities, leading institutions and research centres and industry experts, to forge a fulcrum of scientific excellence in the Middle East. As we look forward and confront the greatest challenges of tomorrow, our ever-expanding knowledge and expertise in the STEM fields will catapult the Middle East into a position of prominence.
