ABU DHABI: The UAE is going ahead with its “Projects of the 50” initiative, with senior officials set to announce the second set of projects on Sunday. 

Members of the media gathered at the Qasr Al Watan, the presidential palace, in Abu Dhabi where a press conference was held. 

It follows an earlier event in Dubai where the first package under the initiative was unveiled, including investment efforts and more relaxed visa policies. 

These are all part of the country’s “Projects of the 50,” which marks the UAE’s 50th year since the unification of all the emirates. 

The projects will revolve around social and economic development, covering entrepreneurship, the circular economy, as well as the fourth industrial revolution.
