The Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) has completed its preparations to participate in GITEX Technology Week 2020, where it will present a number of innovative technology projects that provide solutions for different aspects of life. TRA will participate as part of the UAE Digital Government stand, which will host 15 federal government entities, presenting their most important achievements in leveraging modern technologies for facilitating government services, customer happiness, and enhancing the principle of comprehensive government and distinctive technology services.
During the exhibition, which will be held at the Dubai World Trade Center from 6 to 10 December 2020, TRA will present the latest developments in the field of ICT and digital government, by presenting 5 innovative projects, as well as highlighting the role of these projects in maintaining business continuity during the past period, and TRA contribution to using state-of-art technologies in many humanitarian, social, educational, health, security and other services.
Commenting on this participation, H.E. Hamad Obaid Al Mansoori, TRA Director General, said: “Holding GITEX this year reflects the rapid recovery in the global exhibition industry, in which the UAE has been in the lead, as life began to return to normal in various sectors. The UAE has proven that betting on digital infrastructure supported by future vision is the right choice for business continuity against various challenges. This year's GITEX Technology Week is an opportunity to exchange experiences on leveraging latest technologies to overcome the challenges the world is going through.”
H.E. Al Mansoori added: “TRA will be part of the UAE Digital Government stand, through which it will present the most innovative projects that are considered the core of digital transformation. It will showcase the impact of these solutions in providing all electronic and digital services to the country's residents and visitors. Visitors to the stand will be able to see what these entities offer in various technical fields.”
TRA has put the finishing touches to all the necessary preparations to participate in the exhibition, while fully adhering to the precautionary measures followed in the UAE aimed at preserving the safety of exhibitors and visitors, allowing everyone to learn about the present and future technologies.
During its participation in GITEX Technology Week, TRA will showcase the latest developments related to Digital Identity, which allows people to complete their government transactions electronically by verifying their identity upon completing their transactions. TRA stand visitors will also get acquainted with the latest developments in the Digital Signature project, which aims to enable people to sign important documents securely with their personal digital signature. It helps people sign necessary documents remotely, easily, securely while being verified - avoiding having to print, scan, or any other task associated with the traditional method of signing and sending documents.
TRA will also present the Data Vault project, where all your documents are securely stored. In the event of needing documents for certain government transactions, these documents are at your fingertips through retrieval from the vault. The idea is to showcase how the vault has made completing government services seamless by allowing you to carry the most up-to-date version of your documents wherever you go.
Moreover, in an effort to facilitate the process of obtaining smart government services, TRA will present the Digital Payment project, which is a project developed to facilitate payment for government services, or even potential private services. The concept is to facilitate payments using this method.
GITEX Technology Week is the largest exhibition of information and communication technology in the region, held this year according to special precautionary measures, with the aim of providing a rich, useful and safe experience for all visitors, while introducing them to the latest developments in various technological fields.
