This collaboration underscores Dubai’s commitment to positioning itself as a global leader in civil aviation and smart transportation solutions.

The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed by H.E. Mohammed Abdullah Lengawi, Director General of DCAA, and Dr. Yinian Mao, Chairman of Keeta Drones. The agreement focuses on several key areas: assessing infrastructure requirements for designated drone zones, reviewing airspace needs, and evaluating safety and security measures essential for effective drone delivery operations within the emirate.

H.E. Mohammed Abdullah Lengawi emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating, “This collaboration highlights the DCAA’s dedication to implementing Dubai’s leadership vision by enabling drone-based delivery and offering innovative infrastructure that allows companies to test their solutions within a safe and model environment.” He further noted the authority’s commitment to creating an attractive environment for emerging aviation technologies while ensuring regulatory frameworks that enhance safety and security.

The DCAA will provide necessary support to Keeta Drones, including facilitating communication with relevant government entities to expedite the establishment of new drone flight paths and promote the growth of the low-altitude aviation economy in Dubai. This initiative is part of broader efforts to regulate drone operations and associated activities, aiming to develop innovative and secure transport solutions that benefit various societal sectors while supporting the emirate’s sustainable and ambitious development goals.
