UAE plans to provide 100,000 golden visas to the best computer programming talents

The UAE is committed to unlocking the full potential of digital economy, and the government is involving all relevant parties to stimulate digital industries.

Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy recently hosted its 10th session of digital industry workshops, focusing on software development and artificial intelligence (AI). The event brought together top executives, business leaders, experts, and entrepreneurs to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the industry.

Dubai aims to become a preferred destination for international digital investment and global tech talent, and is attracting a growing number of software development professionals.

This is in line with the UAE's plans to provide 100,000 golden visas to the best computer programming talent both in the UAE and across the globe.

The UAE has set its sights on positioning itself as a global leader in artificial intelligence by 2031, with several priority sectors, including Resources & Energy, Logistics & Transport, Hospitality, Healthcare, and Cybersecurity. The 'UAE Digital Economy Strategy' aims to double the contribution of the digital economy to the UAE’s gross domestic product (GDP) to 19.4 per cent within 10 years.

Dubai Chamber of Digital Economy is committed to achieving these ambitious goals and further establishing Dubai as a leading hub for software development and artificial intelligence.
