If you are a video game enthusiast or a sci-fi supporter, the idea of metaverse has most likely crossed your mind. This innovative term is a combination of the prefix "meta" (meaning beyond) and "universe". Hence, it is typically used to describe the concept of a world where anything we can imagine can exist. Powered by the internet and virtual assets, it will be made up of shared 3D virtual spaces where people can come together to interact, engage, transact, and build upon a digital version of life.

Keeping an old concept relevant in today’s business landscape, social, mobile, analytics, and cloud (SMAC) are still the key pillars of digital transformation. The more the consumers get hooked to what they see online on smaller screens, the more enterprises are pushed to innovate the massive amount of available data for better experience and solutions.

There is no denying how technology helped the world navigate through the virus-laden pandemic even as businesses are getting back on track to reboot the slackened economies. The return to a ‘new normal’ will warrant workspaces to develop solutions to protect employees and keep the virus at bay by cleaning and disinfecting the sources of exposure, routes of transmission, and other unique characteristics of the virus.

The Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA) have completed its preparations to participate in GITEX Technology Week 2021. TDRA will manage the unified Digital Government stand that hosts 19 federal government entities.

The adoption of 5G technology in the Middle East has been evident, particularly with Abu Dhabi, capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), being ranked among the fastest capitals globally in Ookla’s latest H1 2021 data.

This turnout reflects TDRA’s success in delivering services and initiatives that contribute to raising customer satisfaction and happiness.
