We are proud to unveil the very first edition of Women of the Future UAE, an inspiring initiative that shines a spotlight on the women who are redefining leadership, innovation, and impact across the United Arab Emirates. This edition marks a bold new chapter in the globally acclaimed Women of the Future series, and it’s the first time we bring this powerful platform to the UAE—where the pace of progress meets the power of possibility.

More than just a publication, Women of the Future UAE is a movement. It’s a celebration of the trailblazers who are helping shape the future of one of the most dynamic regions on earth. From AI researchers and fintech founders to education reformers, healthcare leaders, and creative pioneers, this project brings together stories of courage, ambition, and transformation. Each woman featured is a catalyst for change—challenging norms, building futures, and elevating the communities around them.

The UAE stands as a beacon of innovation and inclusion, and this book is a reflection of that spirit. It was curated under the leadership of Co-Publisher Lucy Chow, a tireless advocate for women in tech and entrepreneurship, and selected by a diverse and distinguished board of thought leaders. Together, we’ve created something more than a book—we’ve built a platform to connect, empower, and celebrate.

Women of the Future UAE invites you to meet the women behind the headlines. The women who are not waiting for the future—they’re building it.
