Mubadala's Solutions+ aims to double Dh1.5bn contribution to Abu Dhabi GDP
Mubadala's Solutions+ unit, a technology and innovation initiative, projects doubling its reported Dh1.5 billion contribution to Abu Dhabi's gross domestic product (GDP). The claim comes from a National article citing company expectations and government context. The explanation below breaks down what this means, who is affected, and practical steps for interested readers.
What changed
The entity Mubadala Solutions+ anticipates increasing its contribution to Abu Dhabi’s GDP from the current level to about twice that amount, reaching around Dh3 billion. GDP contribution is a measure of how much a sector or program adds to the economy’s total value in a given period. The source report notes that this is an expected outcome, not an immediate guaranteed result, and it depends on future business performance and investments tied to Solutions+ activities.
Key facts you should know

- The projection is described as an expectation by Mubadala Solutions+, not a final audited statistic.
- The story is reported by The National, referencing statements from Mubadala Solutions+ and related Abu Dhabi economic context.

The broader effect would be on Abu Dhabi’s economy through higher activity in technology and innovation sectors cited by the report.
Practical next steps
