The jury is composed of respected leaders from Abu Dhabi and various regions worldwide, encompassing both public and private sector representatives.
Part of a broader governmental initiative aimed at enhancing institutional effectiveness and facilitating collaboration between entities, the award adheres to the Abu Dhabi Government Performance and Excellence Model. This framework is focused on human-centric outcomes, sustainable public value, and improving life quality while preparing governance for future challenges.
The award's evaluation is founded on a thorough process, with more than 90 experts from both local and international spheres appraising 37 government entities and 103 initiatives across different categories. Notably, this year marks the integration of AI-driven evaluations, improving decision-making and insight generation. The final laureates will be determined by the jury.
Leading the jury is Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, the UAE Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and the Managing Director and Group CEO of ADNOC. The jury features prominent members like Saif Saeed Ghobash, Ala’a Eraiqat, Mariana Mazzucato, and Andreas Jacobs.
This eclectic group combines expertise across governance, innovation, academia, and business, providing a comprehensive viewpoint on public value, performance, and institutional change.
Dr. Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber highlighted that excellence is at the core of Abu Dhabi’s strategy, emphasizing that the award supports the emirate’s goal of becoming the first fully AI-native government by 2027. He underscored the importance of technological advancements in enhancing service quality, refining decision-making, and achieving measurable public outcomes.
