Dubai Artificial Intelligence Centre (DCAI) has launched applications for the second cycle of the “Future of AI in Government Service Accelerators” program, offering global technology innovators and AI companies the opportunity to partner with more than 20 government agencies to develop and deploy cutting-edge solutions.
The initiative, launched in collaboration with Dubai Future Accelerator, part of the Dubai Future Foundation, is a central pillar of the “Dubai Universal Blueprint Blueprint for Artificial Intelligence” and aims to position UAE cities as the world's largest hub for AI-driven innovation in all major sectors.
This program targets four priority areas.
- Personalize and improve efficiency of existing services
- Create a completely new AI-powered solution for issues that have not been solved before
- Increase operational efficiency within everyday government processes
- Expanding accessibility to make services available across all segments of society

Selected companies gain direct access to senior decision makers, receive mentorship from AI and industry experts, work hands-on with government teams, and pilot solutions.
Importantly, DCAI has not acquired any interest in the stock and ensures that participants retain full ownership of the innovation.
Participants will be invited to the Emirates for an intensive eight-week residency from October 6th to November 28th, 2025, with fully sponsored accommodation and travel.
This allows teams to focus completely on building and implementing projects in a live government environment.
The first cycle of accelerators attracted 615 AI companies from 55 countries, bringing 183 AI use cases, with 75 already being piloted.
Saeed Al Falasi, Executive Director of Dubai Artificial Intelligence Center, said: “The future of AI in the Government Service Accelerator Programme is designed to induce the innovative use of AI, helping government agencies position Dubai among the world's top cities to provide agile, AI-powered public services defined by speed, quality and efficiency.
“Our goal is to create a seamless, intelligent experience that saves time and effort while improving the quality of life to make Dubai the happiest city in the world.”
The application will be open until August 28th, 2025. AI companies can register through the DCAI website to have the opportunity to shape the future of public services in the Emirates.
