The UAE has consistently been at the forefront of innovation and sustainable development, and with the recent launch of operations at the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant, it will the first Arab country to adopt environment-friendly nuclear energy.

I would like to congratulate our visionary leaders and the UAE government, without whose foresight and commitment towards clean, sustainable energy, this feat would not have been possible. We now enter a new era, one with exponential economic development founded upon groundbreaking scientific research.
