How we work

MBRCGI is The Custodian & Catalyst to Scale Innovation in the UAE and to ensure that innovation is implemented to its full potential by collaborating with all government entities.

MBRCGI is working with all essential partners of the public sector to ensure that innovation is pursed and implemented to its full potential.

INNOVATION ENABLERS

Identify public sector innovation trends and build capacity and networks that contributes to achieving the national agenda
Innovation enablers are crucial for building an innovation- friendly environment in the UAE. These enablers, supported by various programs and initiatives, embed innovation into daily practices through learning and exploration, directly benefiting citizens. They also aim to foster networks that facilitate collaboration and the sharing of ideas.

INNOVATION POSSIBILITIES

Incubate and prototype innovative initiatives in the UAE government to stretch what is possible
Under Innovation Possibilities, we seek to inspire and empower public sector employees to embrace experimentation and prototyping as integral components of their work. By encouraging a mindset shift from risk-averse to innovation- oriented, we aim to foster an environment where novel ideas are not only welcomed but actively pursued and implemented.

INNOVATION PLATFORMS

Create and provide transformative approaches and tools that scale and multiply impact
Innovation platforms are instrumental in exchanging ideas/concepts, collaboration and co-creation across different sectors. By fostering environments that encourage creativity and innovation, these platforms enable individuals and organizations, enhance their work and provide them with solutions.

We strive to make innovation an everyday practice by experimenting with new approaches, enabling people with the right capabilities, networks and resources, thereby enriching the culture of innovation.

 

Innovation, in essence, is really about creating robust government models and resilient societies. And we saw more than ever how important agility and readiness was in dealing with the pandemic.
