20 May 2026

At Expo 2025 Osaka, NEP unveiled two new publications that spotlight the future of innovation and the strength of UAE–Japan collaboration.

The first, Bridging Futures, highlights 17 case studies of bilateral technical cooperation, spanning space exploration, AI-enabled healthcare, hydrogen energy, advanced manufacturing, and beyond. The report showcases how joint ventures between Japanese and Emirati institutions are advancing shared solutions for complex global challenges — a compelling reminder of the power of cross-cultural innovation.

The second report, Tech Trends, offers a sharp look at 10 emerging technologies expected to shape 2026 — from urban air mobility and predictive genomics to green industry and legislation powered by AI. Authored by NEP Experts, the publication connects global shifts in tech with strategic relevance for the UAE.

Both reports are now available online and offer readers a timely lens into how the UAE is collaborating globally and thinking ahead. Read the reports: https://uaenep.ae/en/ai-reports
