Zawya06-02-2025

UAE-based Kasco Developments, the real estate arm of the Kasco Group, said it has partnered with Evolutions, a leading real estate intelligence hub, for official launch of Volna, its third residential project in Dubai.
Following the success of Onda and VAL, this new development further strengthens Kasco's presence in the UAE property market since its debut in September 2024, said a statement from the UAE group.
Strategically located along Al Jaddaf Waterfront, Volna is an 11-floor residential building featuring 65 meticulously designed homes.
The project offers a diverse selection of residences, including studios (up to 912 sqft), one-bedroom apartments (up to 1,480 sq ft), two-bedroom apartments (up to 1,620 sqft), and three-bedroom apartments (up to 3,407 sqft).
Designed to cater to modern living needs, Volna harmoniously blends functionality with aesthetic excellence, offering a holistic residential experience, said the statement.
The construction of Volna is already underway, with handover expected in Q2 2026, it added.
On the new launch, Chairman Mustafa Al Kaissi said: "Today marks another significant milestone for Kasco Developments as we proudly unveil Volna, our third project in Dubai, located at the picturesque Al Jaddaf Waterfront. This achievement is a testament to our unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional living spaces that blend functionality with aesthetic excellence."
"Each residence at Volna has been meticulously designed to cater to the diverse needs and aspirations of modern residents, ensuring an unparalleled living experience," he noted.
Inspired by the rhythmic movement of waves, Volna embodies adaptability in design. Its prime location and thoughtfully curated amenities provide a perfect balance of vibrancy and tranquility.
Volna has the benefit of being in a residential district that's conveniently close to key locations such as Downtown Dubai, Business Bay, Dubai Festival City, and Dubai International Airport. The location is also well-connected with all major roads and transportation, stated the developer.
Additionally, each residence at Volna will have a breathtaking view of the canal and the Dubai Creek Harbor, bringing a sense of serenity and connection to nature in a resident's life, it added.
CEO Issa Abdul Rahman said: "At Kasco Developments, we aspire to shape vibrant communities that inspire and uplift lifestyles. Volna is a shining example of this commitment. By seamlessly integrating design, innovation, and uncompromising quality, we ensure that our residents enjoy a truly exceptional living experience."
Adham Younis, CEO of Evolutions, said: "Our strong partnership with Kasco Developments continues to grow, and the launch of Volna, our second project together, reflects our shared commitment to delivering high-quality residences that enhance the living experience and create valuable opportunities for buyers."
"Following the remarkable success of VAL, which sold out by Evolutions sales team in just two weeks, Volna is set to build on that momentum. With its prime location and flexible 40/60 payment plan, Volna offers an exceptional investment for those seeking a home that seamlessly combines convenience, well-being, and long-term value," he added.-TradeArabia News Service

Ben Sulayem says Japan and the FIA are united in driving global progress

Dubai, UAE: FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem has completed an official visit to Japan, reaffirming the strong ties between the Federation and one of the world's most influential nations in mobility and motorsport. As the governing body for world motorsport and the federation for mobility organisations worldwide, the FIA is committed to building partnerships that drive innovation, safety, and sustainability. Hosted by the Japan Automobile Federation (JAF) and President Masayoshi Sakaguchi, the visit offered vital insights into Japan's investment in smart infrastructure and the evolving role of cities as arenas for both mobility innovation and sporting events. Japan continues to be a vital partner in advancing the FIA's goals, and this visit highlighted the shared commitment of both Japan and the FIA to accelerate progress across the global transport and motorsport arenas. During his official visit, Ben Sulayem met with key national figures including Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, Koji Murofushi, Commissioner of the Japan Sports Agency, and Hiromasa Nakano, Minister of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism. Their discussions focused on common challenges and opportunities – from advancing cleaner technologies and enhancing road safety, to expanding access to motorsport and preparing for the future of urban mobility. Reflecting on his visit, Ben Sulayem said: 'This has been an important milestone for the FIA as we deepen our relationship with Japan – a country that continues to lead by example in both mobility innovation and motorsport development. 'It was a personal honour to meet with Prime Minister Ishiba and leading ministers, and to witness firsthand the energy and commitment driving progress across the sector. 'From transformative government policies to world-class sporting activities including four FIA World Championship events, Japan shows how integrated approaches to mobility and sport can serve society. 'The JAF's dual role as a sport and mobility leader, representing more than 20 million members and hosting our Championships, is truly remarkable and I am grateful for their hospitality and support.' Ben Sulayem also highlighted the significance of having Mr. Akio Toyoda, Chairman of Toyota, as an active member of the FIA Senate, symbolising the close and constructive relationship between Japan's automotive leaders and the FIA's global mission. The visit comes at a time of notable growth and renewed momentum for Japan's motorsport and mobility sectors. JAF now reports over 200,000 licensed racing drivers – a 20% increase over the past five years – with the 2025 Formula 1 Japanese Grand Prix recording its highest attendance since 2006. At the same time, Japan's broader mobility ecosystem continues to inspire on the world stage through cutting-edge innovation in smart cities, hydrogen, and sustainable technologies. With a mobility-first approach to infrastructure design that is seeing smart-transport apps rank among one of the fastest growing national services and a smart transportation market valued last year at $6.9 billion, Japan is a pioneer in the real-world integration of new technologies. Ben Sulayem has quickly moved on from Japan to Macau for the 2025 FIA Extraordinary General Assembly and Annual Conference starting on Tuesday and welcoming over 500 senior FIA delegates across mobility and motorsport from 149 countries. About FIA The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) is the governing body for world motorsport and the federation for mobility organisations globally. It is a non-profit organisation committed to driving innovation and championing safety, sustainability and equality across motor sport and mobility. Founded in 1904, with offices in Paris, London and Geneva, the FIA brings together 245 Member Organisations across five continents, representing millions of road users, motor sport professionals and volunteers. It develops and enforces regulations for motor sport, including seven FIA World Championships, to ensure worldwide competitions are safe and fair for all.

Beyond oil and data: Why water will dictate political and economic landscapes of the next century

Water is fast becoming the defining commodity of the 21st century. Not oil, not data, but water. As we look ahead, this basic element that is essential for life, agriculture, and industry is on course to surpass more commonly regarded natural resources in its globally strategic importance and economic value. Demand for water is rising at an unprecedented pace. From rising urban populations to the water-intensive requirements of AI data centres, semiconductor manufacturing, and green hydrogen production, the pressure on global freshwater supplies is accelerating. What was once considered a freely accessible resource is increasingly subject to scarcity, speculation, and geopolitical risk. The UAE's growing global role At the same time, the UAE is fast becoming a global leader on water solutions through major investments in rainwater harvesting, innovative reuse of water and advanced desalination. A key example is Taweelah in Abu Dhabi — the world's largest reverse-osmosis desalination plant, which can add 900,000 cubic metres of water per day to meet the needs of one million people. The UAE has also stepped up as a water solutions leader beyond its borders, pioneering energy-for-water deals with trade partners such as China, Jordan and Israel. As a quid-pro-quo arrangement where energy assets or support are exchanged for water assets and or services, this form of trade often compliments carbon-rich nations with an opportunity to shore up their water security, while providing energy to water-rich countries in return. On the international stage, the UAE already made significant inroads into recognising water's vital status. At COP28, it led a landmark agreement that explicitly recognised the critical role of water in climate adaptation. Backed by $150 million endowment via the Mohamed Bin Zayed Water Initiative, the UAE is also championing breakthrough technologies, while preparing to host the pivotal 2026 UN Water Conference. As we escalate our efforts to mitigate the effects of water scarcity upon our security, the time has come for all countries to reimagine water in the same light as other commodities - a highly strategic asset, integral to driving global sustainability and climate solutions. A transparent, neutral, and legally sound water market Nearly half the global population experienced water scarcity last year, a phenomenon that increasingly mirrors patterns of geopolitical tension. We see this vividly in the Nile Basin, where competing claims between Egypt, Ethiopia, and Sudan have escalated into diplomatic standoffs. Similar strains are present along the Colorado River in North America and in the Mekong Delta of Southeast Asia, and just recently between Pakistan and India. As with energy, water is becoming politicised, but unlike oil or gas, we don't yet have mature markets to manage and mitigate these tensions. The absence of common trading frameworks, transparent pricing mechanisms, or enforceable governance structures leaves water vulnerable to fragmentation and conflict. While oil fields around the world are heavily guarded, the world's most vital resource is left exposed, undervalued, and unprotected. Without a clear price signal, water is treated as an unlimited resource, leading to waste, mismanagement, and inequitable access, discouraging innovation in conservation while failing to attract private sector financing. This is where global trade and logistics have a critical role to play – not by commodifying water for the sake of profit, but in bringing structure, neutrality, and transparency to its allocation. By recognising that water is an asset class with a tangible economic value, we can turn it into collateral for financial instruments to unlock much-needed capital for sustainable water infrastructure, storage, conservation and innovation. However, financial infrastructure is only one part of the solution. Physical infrastructure, particularly logistics, is equally essential. The ability to transport water in bulk, efficiently and cost-effectively, will determine the success of the global water trade and while much of the world's freshwater is geographically concentrated, the real challenge lies in getting it to areas facing acute scarcity. Innovative logistics solutions, including large-scale maritime transport, are now making this possible, however, what is really needed are strong, on-the-ground partnerships to receive, store, and distribute water reliably. Without this logistical backbone, even the most advanced water trading models will fall short. As a solution, technological breakthroughs that enable distributed water production via atmospheric humidity such as Hawana Water, a DMCC company, have promised to make an outsized contribution with impressive rates of efficiency and volume. Aside from accessibility, technology will also play a key role in adapting water for various purposes. For example, companies such as Enagic and its Kangen Water systems create hydrogen rich, alkalized water, which is produced using its patented ionizing technologies to optimise health via its antioxidant properties. Dubai – the future capital of the global water trade The same principles that apply to gold, diamonds and oil must now be applied to water. It is for these reasons that we are building the DMCC Water Centre, a dedicated ecosystem for water-focused companies that will spearhead innovation, technologies, sustainable best practices, knowledge sharing, and education. The Water Centre will eventually serve as the main regional hub for pioneers in the field of water management, from WaterTech innovators to logistics providers. To that end, we are proud to have signed a landmark deal with Fresh Water Norway, bringing one billion litres of natural drinking water to Dubai annually for the next 50 years, and a partnership in the works with Aqua Index, whose founder, Yaacov Shirazi, stands as an early pioneer of water tokenisation, and a leading advocate for global transparency. As a commodities centre, our role is to offer a neutral ground for trade, with Dubai providing a de-risked and regulated environment where international actors can collaborate, innovate, and produce with confidence – a crucial requirement as legal tensions over water inevitably escalate. The world cannot afford for water to become a source of division, but instead a basis for cooperation. In this capacity, DMCC Water Centre has the potential to serve as an agnostic facilitator for development, trade and progress, while striving to solve one of the world's most pressing humanitarian challenges - making clean water a right, and not a privilege.
