Frequently asked
A co-creation space run by Dubai Future Foundation, presented as the physical manifestation of Dubai's drive to be the world's leading innovation city ahead of the UAE's 2071 centenary. It sits in the Foundation's Future Design and Acceleration portfolio.
Flexible office and meeting space, state of the art facilities, startup business licences, and physical proximity to an ecosystem of labs, incubators, public sector and enterprise partners.
Three groups. Residents are the innovators and entrepreneurs who work and collaborate there. Hosts are public sector entities, private enterprises and civil society organisations that want to trial technology led initiatives with startups and researchers. Guests are the wider community attending events, workshops and talks.
Dubai Future Foundation publishes no application form and no intake dates for AREA 2071. The former standalone portal at area2071.ae now redirects to the Foundation's site, and the Foundation's programmes page currently lists other programmes rather than an AREA 2071 call, so approach the Foundation through its contact page and treat any residency terms as quoted rather than published.
