Dubai Future Foundation and Oxa Launch SHIFFT for Autonomous Logistics at Ports and Airports
Dubai Future Foundation (DFF) and Oxa have unveiled SHIFFT, a joint venture aimed at establishing Dubai as a leader in autonomous logistics. This initiative will integrate self-driving technology into a comprehensive logistics solution, enhancing productivity and safety in operations at ports and airports. The significance of SHIFFT lies in its potential to transform Dubai's logistics sector, contributing to the city's goal of doubling foreign trade volume by 2033. By deploying Oxa's advanced self-driving software and fleet management systems, SHIFFT aims to improve operational resilience and efficiency, aligning with Dubai's Research, Development, and Innovation (RDI) Programme. Looking ahead, SHIFFT plans to initiate its first scalable commercial deployment in Dubai by the end of 2027. This venture not only promotes autonomous mobility but also seeks to create high-tech jobs and bolster Dubai's position as a regional hub for research and development in logistics.
