Abu dhabi: On day two of GITEX Global 2025, the Abu Dhabi Government unveiled a new wave of world-first innovations and strategic partnerships, reinforcing its vision to become the world's first fully AI-native government by 2027. More than 30 government and academic entities are participating in the Abu Dhabi Pavilion under the theme AI-Native by Design, Community-Driven by Purpose, showcasing how collaboration across government, industry, and academia is enabling smarter, safer, and more human-centred digital experiences.
According to Emirates News Agency, at the centre of the day's announcements was the launch of the most advanced version of TAMM, the emirate's super app which unifies over 1,100 public and private services. Powered by the Department of Government Enablement - Abu Dhabi (DGE), TAMM revealed an expanded portfolio of AI-driven features and intuitive Spaces that bring together services around the key moments of people's lives. Dr Mohamed Al Askar, Director-General of TAMM, stated that the upgrade leverages AI to adapt experiences to users' profiles and preferences, aiming to redefine government service delivery.
Among the latest additions is AutoGov, the world's first AI public servant - a self-learning system that autonomously manages recurring government tasks such as license renewals and bill payments. TAMM 4.0 also introduces AI Vision and Smart Guide, which provide spoken and visual support and document validation, alongside TAMM Hologram for real-time, step-by-step guidance through holographic agents.
New features like TAMM by You allow users to share and vote on ideas for future services, while the addition of two new TAMM Spaces - Mobility and Family - highlights Abu Dhabi's people-first approach. Expanded partnerships with entities like the Department of Municipalities and Transport enable new service capabilities such as vehicle transactions and property transaction integration.
The DGE announced strategic digital infrastructure partnerships aimed at advancing Abu Dhabi's smart urban ecosystem. These include collaborations with companies like CyberGate for cybersecurity, Core42 for cloud transformation, and Microsoft for enhancing AI governance. The launch of initiatives like the Smart Inspection Robot and LivAI, the emirate's new Digital Twin Platform, further demonstrates Abu Dhabi's commitment to smart city development.
