The Abu Dhabi Investment Office (ADIO) has announced 29 new commercial deployment agreements for autonomous mobility technologies during the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Summit, part of the inaugural Abu Dhabi Autonomous Week (ADAW).

These landmark agreements, signed with partners including K2, LODD Autonomous, Autologix, Sinaha, TractEasy, MLG, and Space42, position Abu Dhabi among the first global cities to establish an integrated, multi-modal regulatory and infrastructure framework for commercial deployment of autonomous systems. With these partnerships, Abu Dhabi strengthens its status as a global hub for testing, scaling, and commercializing next-generation autonomous technologies.

The projects cover key sectors such as e-commerce, food and parcel delivery with partners like AD Mobility, Talabat, Noon, and Aramex; healthcare logistics with PureLab; and industrial automation. Autonomous air and ground delivery solutions have already begun operations, supported by SASC’s regulatory framework for safe and efficient adoption.

His Excellency Badr Al-Olama, Director General of the Abu Dhabi Investment Office, said: “Abu Dhabi is leading the transformation in smart mobility and logistics, with these 29 commercial pilot agreements marking a decisive step toward a future where autonomous technologies set new standards for transportation and trade. Anchored by the Smart and Autonomous Vehicle Industries (SAVI) cluster, these agreements translate decades of R&D into tangible commercial deployment. Together, they represent a defining moment, where technology begins to function as a viable and vital part of the global economy. This shift is enabled by the Smart and Autonomous Systems Council’s vision for a coordinated approach in which regulation, infrastructure and industry development advance together, creating a clear path for deployment, commercialisation and wider adoption. By advancing solutions that support e-commerce, healthcare and critical logistics, we are reinforcing Abu Dhabi’s position as a place where emerging industries can grow faster, scale further and deliver lasting impact to businesses and communities worldwide.”
