Hexnode VAD Technologies Join Hands To Simplify Endpoint Management in The Middle East
As Smart City initiatives and digital infrastructure investments gain momentum across the Middle East, the demand for comprehensive endpoint oversight is becoming increasingly apparent. The UAE invested over $7 billion in Smart City projects, while Saudi Arabia's NEOM allocated around $1.2 billion specifically to cybersecurity infrastructure. With IoT devices, connected systems and remote access points forming the backbone of these smart ecosystems, businesses in the region are prioritizing centralized platforms to monitor and manage the vast network of endpoints essential to their operations.
This partnership positions Hexnode and VAD Technologies to equip regional businesses with powerful UEM tools that enable seamless scalability, ensure endpoint visibility and streamline device management effectively.
Commenting on the collaboration, Mr. Mario Veljovic, General Manager at VAD Technologies said, 'We are proud to welcome Hexnode to our vendor portfolio as we continue to expand our focus on enterprise mobility and endpoint security. With our strong regional presence, deep channel relationships, and proven go-to-market capabilities, VAD is well-positioned to accelerate Hexnode's growth across the Middle East. We look forward to enabling our partners with Hexnode's robust platform and driving impactful customer outcomes together.'
Built for modern enterprise environments, Hexnode's UEM solution offers a unified platform for managing diverse device fleets and securing endpoints across multiple operating systems. With integrated core capabilities like Patch Management, Remote Monitoring, Application Management and AI-powered Automation, Hexnode enables IT teams to automate security tasks, maintain compliance and reduce IT complexity through a centralized console.
The platform's flexibility extends to specialised enterprise needs, with support for Kiosk Management, BYOD management, Rugged Device Management, and IoT Device Management, enabling organisations across industries to tailor endpoint control to their operational landscapes.
'VAD Technologies has a deep understanding of the evolving IT landscape in the Middle East, and this partnership allows Hexnode to reach more businesses with the right solutions at the right time,' said Abhishek Pradhan, Regional Director (SAARC & Middle East) at Hexnode. 'As businesses in the region scale their digital infrastructure, we're here to ensure their endpoints remain secure, compliant and easy to manage.'

DEWA's R&D Centre secures CE product certification for OmniHub IoT terminal
Dubai, UAE: The Research and Development (R&D) Centre of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has announced that its OmniHub IoT terminal has received the CE product certification for health, safety and environmental compliance. OmniHub successfully passed all testing requirements in a single development cycle covering concept, delivery and maintenance, exceeding industry benchmarks. The R&D Centre highlighted the terminal's advanced features, particularly its connectivity with the DEWASAT-1 nanosatellite, paving the way for field deployment. Omnihub was developed in line with the highest standards of reliability and efficiency under DEWA's Space-D programme to connect terrestrial sensors with satellites and ground-based networks. The terminal, including its 3D-printed encasing, was designed and manufactured at the R&D Centre. Multiple OmniHub terminals have been operational in the field for over six months, effectively meeting the operational needs of different DEWA business units. These installations showcase OmniHub's reliability, versatility and effectiveness in real-world applications. 'In line with the wise directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, we are contributing to the development of the space sector and various related sectors, as well as the transition towards a diversified, knowledge-based economy. Thanks to its environment that stimulates innovation and excellence, DEWA's R&D Centre has become a key driver for achieving the National Space Strategy 2030 and supporting the space industry and its various activities, including government space activities, commercial activities and scientific activities,' said HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, MD & CEO of DEWA. OmniHub has demonstrated full compatibility with DEWA's operational technology (OT) requirements. It supports multi-technology connectivity, boasts strong communication capabilities and complies with stringent OT and IT security standards. With its six-month battery life and low-power consumption, the terminal is designed for durability in harsh environments, including dusty and wet conditions, ensuring consistent performance across DEWA's various divisions and business areas. The terminal is compatible with international standards, ensuring robust security across connected devices. It supports Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy, Narrowband Internet of Things, LTE CAT-M and LoRa\LoRaWAN protocols to enable seamless communication with several satellites and various terrestrial networks. DEWA uses the digital IoT platform hosted by its data centre – operated by Moro Hub, a subsidiary of Digital DEWA – to support remote device management. -Ends- For more information, please contact: Shaikha Almheiri / Mohammad Almheiri / Ribal Dayekh Mariam Mikhail / Esraa Hamed Dubai Electricity and Water Authority Seen Media / / mariam@ / esraa@ For more information, please visit DEWA's website DEWA's social media accounts:

South Africa: How Mooikloof Mega City is fuelling the future of Tshwane's infrastructure?
Backed by the Mooikloof Mega City development, the Garsfontein Road (K50) upgrade is gathering momentum. Mooikloof Mega City is a planned smart city project east of Pretoria. The development has a total project value of over R84bn. Gazetted in 2020 as a Strategic Integrated Project, the residential and commercial mega development — which will include schools, shops, and offices — is positioned to provide lower-income groups with access to premium lifestyle services. 'Continued investments in providing quality road infrastructure will continue to serve as a key stimulator of economic activities and growth. "We believe that road infrastructure upgrades such as these will go a long way in unlocking and integrating major economic nodes in these areas,' Member of the Executive Council (MEC) for Roads and Transport, Kedibone Diale-Tlabela, said on Wednesday, 6 August 2025. Garsfontein Road links primarily the Menlyn node and the Garsfontein/Woodlands development nodes with the N1 freeway. It runs through the suburbs of Ashlea Gardens, DeBeers, Menlyn, Newlands, Waterkloof Glen, Garsfontein, Constantia Park and Moreleta Park, ending in Alphen Park. The 30-month project, undertaken in partnership with the City of Tshwane, entails upgrading the road's existing two lanes and converting part of Solomon Mahlangu Drive — up to Gilda Road/Delfi Avenue — into a four-lane carriageway, with pedestrian lanes installed. This includes a divided four-lane stretch between January Masilela and Loristo Street. Key corridor expansion Notable progress has been made in the construction of new storm-water lines, box-cutting for new lanes, and preparation of the roadbed ahead of the construction of the layer works. Construction of layer works and structural works has begun on various sections of the Constantia Spruit bridge crossing, which is currently being widened. Diale-Tlabela said investing in road infrastructure, increasing capacity to reduce travel times and providing easy access to business and residential estates will contribute to improving the quality of life for local communities. The MEC also noted the economic benefits of the project, which include the creation of much-needed job opportunities and promotion of social development. Mooikloof Mega City was announced by president Cyril Ramaphosa in 2020, and is one of 62 Strategic Integrated Projects (SIPs) gazetted in 2020. The Mooikloof Mega City development supports the spatial prioritisation of the City of Tshwane's Spatial Development Framework and respective Regional Spatial Development Framework, which derive their legislative mandate from the Spatial Planning and Land Use Management Act (Spluma). They seek to address the spatial and social inequality by providing access to lifestyle services to lower income groups. 'The department and the City of Tshwane are constantly in engagements with affected communities and businesses to address challenges and concerns about the project," the provincial department said. 'Motorists are encouraged to approach the roadworks site with caution as speed restrictions and barriers/delimitators are in place and the department is pleading for understanding and co-operation.'
