Abstract

strong and productive government sector that has embraced technology and is committed to standards of excellence. The city also has committed to digital transformation, a technological journey that began in 1999 with the announcement of its first ICT strategy. This was followed by the launch of Dubai Internet City, Dubai Egovernment, Dubai Smart Government, and, most recently, the Smart Dubai Office in 2015. The Smart Dubai Office was formed with a vision to make Dubai a truly citizen-centric smart city, ensuring the highest levels of happiness for all residents and visitors. Today, with its adoption of new technologies and pioneering of innovative smart pilots, Dubai is among the world’s leading smart cities. Recognizing the potential impact Blockchain technology could have on city services, coupled with a worldwide trend that saw $1.4 billion in private-sector investment in Blockchain technology in 2016 alone, Dubai launched a citywide Blockchain strategy in October 2016. The objective: to become the first Blockchain-powered city by 2020.1. Dubai’s rapid development in various economic sectors meant that traditional processes had to be updated continuously to ensure efficiency and speed. Government effectiveness became DUBAI: A CITY POWERED BY BLOCKCHAIN
