Building the Middle East’s First Industrial Innovation Hub
Building the Middle East’s First Industrial Innovation Hub
In the Middle East, there was no dedicated space for industrial players to test and validate emerging technologies — leaving a major gap in the region’s tech ecosystem.

The Challenge
Factories lacked access to innovation hubs, structured use-case development, and the support needed to experiment with frontier solutions.

The Innovatics Approach.
1
We designed a physical and operational model for a regional innovation hub built specifically for industrial tech experimentation.
2
The hub gave factories a place to bring real challenges, while Innovatics built and deployed tailored solutions around cloud, cybersecurity, IoT, digital twins, and other frontier technologies.
3
Alongside this, we developed the governance structure and roadmap to guide its long-term operation.
4
The concept was fully defined and operationally structured, enabling industrial partners to actively engage in use case testing through innovation hubs in Germany.

First regional industrial innovation hub
Factories now testing frontier tech
Governance and roadmap defined
Active engagement with German partners
For the first time, the Middle East had a blueprint for an industrial experimentation hub that could bring technology and industry together at scale.
