AD Ports Group Transforms Maqta Gateway Into Maqta Technologies Group For Enhanced Digital Trade Solutions

AD Ports Group has unveiled a new identity for Maqta Gateway, now known as Maqta Technologies Group. This change aligns with its strategic aim to enhance global trade through digitalisation. The rebranding highlights the organisation's shift towards future-focused operations, emphasising innovation, collaboration, and investment. It aims to improve experiences for all stakeholders, including employees, customers, suppliers, and shareholders.

Maqta Technologies Group is set to unify various capabilities within AD Ports Group’s Digital Cluster. It will consolidate as the primary brand under Maqta Gateway, AD Ports Group’s digital arm. This includes strategic investments like TTEK, which develops customs modernisation solutions, and Dubai Technologies, a trade and transportation solutions developer. Additionally, it encompasses Maqta Ayla, a joint venture for maritime sector digitalisation in Aqaba, and Nishan Security Services, a provider of smart security services.

Dr. Noura Al Dhaheri leads Maqta Technologies Group as CEO alongside the executive team. They aim to deliver on strategic goals by creating new revenue streams and enhancing existing ones. Dr. Al Dhaheri stated that the launch signifies a major milestone. "Governments and private businesses anywhere in the world can leverage our unique value proposition of combined local and international expertise in digitalising multimodal end-to-end trade value chain," she said.

The group will continue its legacy as a trusted digital transformation leader for AD Ports Group. It will offer secure solutions for smart ports and maritime operations to government and private entities within the trade value chain. These solutions focus on trade facilitation, integrated logistics, and intelligent mobility while adhering to global efficiency standards.

Maqta Technologies Group plans to increase its commercial presence worldwide while managing its business operations closely. This involves overseeing strategy planning along with operational, commercial, and financial performance management. The group will maintain its involvement in these areas to ensure continued growth.

A phased rebranding exercise will soon begin to reflect this new identity across key assets such as Maqta Gateway’s headquarters at "Digital District" and TTEK’s office in Vietnam. This approach aims to minimise disruptions to current operations and stakeholder engagement during the transition period.

The diverse portfolio of investments and solutions allows Maqta Technologies Group to remain agile amidst rapid technological changes. Dr. Al Dhaheri emphasised their commitment: "Maqta Technologies’ mixed portfolio of investments and solutions allows us to stay nimble in a fast-changing world." The group intends to build on this foundation under wise leadership directives.

This rebranding marks an important step in Maqta Technologies Group's journey towards becoming a global leader in trade digitalisation. By focusing on strategic imperatives and enhancing efficiencies, they aim to accelerate progress in this field while maintaining high service excellence standards.
