Future Cities Show will feature disruptive innovations as it hold its third edition on April 8-10, 2019 at the Dubai World Trade Center. Under the theme “Propelling Globalisation through Digital Transformation”, FC will gather together starup companies to showcase their projects to an international roster of investors.
The third edition of FCS will host leaders from various industries to interact and discuss smart city solution trends and outlook. This unique platform also offers startup companies to showcase their projects using disruptive technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Smart Mobility, Smart Infrastructure, and Sustainability.
As world cities have started adopting smart city solutions, Dubai adds more value to its own smart city development plans by ensuring urban challenges, in terms of security and safety, are efficiently addressed. Dubai Police is one of the several government agencies complying to this initiative. Through Artificial Intelligence, Dubai Police is making the emirate of Dubai a much safer place to live and work. Dubai Police’s Smart Area System links over 10,000 CCTV cameras using face recognition technology to predict crime and accidents, detect offenses, and flag wanted criminals and suspects. This state-of-the-art tool can also read vehicle plate number and sends a live feed to Command and Control Center. This year, the use of AI has helped the Dubai Police apprehend 550 people, 109 of which were wanted criminals and 441 were suspects in different crimes.
Last year’s staging of FCS has attracted over 20,332 visitors and 77 exhibitors with co-located Annual Investment Meeting, Dubai Property Festival, and AIM Startup.
