SINGAPORE, June 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genius Group Limited (NYSE American: GNS) (“Genius Group” or the “Company”), a leading AI-powered education group, today announced the launch of two Genius Cities in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, with a first AI Ready Workshop taking place June 25, 2024 at Abu Dhabi University.

The Genius City model gives schools, startups, corporations and government localized and personalized AI powered training, case studies and a marketplace of AI talent and solutions. This enables forward-thinking cities – such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi – to be world leaders with their own Sovereign AI. The two cities follow in the footsteps of Singapore as part of a global network targeting 100 Genius Cities that implement Sovereign AI, integrating a full ‘Genius Cycle’ combining AI training and tools to build their own exponential ecosystems.

The AI Ready Workshop will be hosted by Abu Dhabi University – the UAE's No.1 private university – and will be led by Salim Ismail, the world’s leading expert in Exponential Organizations, co-author of Exponential Organizations and creator of the ExO Model for exponential growth.

The workshop is expected to be attended by 100 invited CEOs, senior government officials, educators and students. It will deliver a snapshot of current AI challenges and opportunities, together with an AI Roadmap for attendees. Participants in the workshop will take an AI Ready assessment and build an AI Ready Roadmap for their business or organization. Participants will learn how to reshape their strategy to be AI Ready, and the pathways to become an AI powered leader within their industry with practical next steps.

“Dubai and Abu Dhabi are leading the world in becoming AI Ready, with recent announcements of the UAE’s National AI Blueprint and AI Officers in all government departments,” said Roger James Hamilton, Founder and CEO of Genius Group. “We are catering to this high demand for AI training in the region with the launch of our Genius City program of AI training & tools. We are also launching AI Hubs in partnership with Abu Dhabi University – both at Internet City in Dubai and the University's main campus in Abu Dhabi – which will be the base to deliver their AI Accelerator Program and AI skills certification courses from leading AI companies including Nvidia, Google and Microsoft.”

“The local government and tech companies are already bringing world class AI tools to UAE. Now, as a Genius City, we can further elevate this progress to deliver measurable results. As we continue to move throughout the year, the team at Genius Group is looking forward to our upcoming Genius City launches including London, Tokyo, Mumbai, Miami, Las Vegas, Toronto, Vancouver, Stockholm and Santiago,” concluded Hamilton.
