We have successfully implemented the UAEU Innovation-Hub website. The Innovation
Hub is a collaborative community center built with the goal to develop a robust and
innovative community, passionate about growing the UAE’s technology and talent pipe-
line.
The Hub equips youth in the UAE with the skills needed to develop mobile applications,
design products, create prototypes, and develop an understanding of Artificial Intelli-
gence and Machine Learning.
In addition, the hub runs a program of Tech Talks, featuring technology experts, prac-
titioners, and entrepreneurs. The Hub welcomes learners from diverse backgrounds,
including teachers, school-age children (from age 8 upwards), university/vocational
students and members of the community interested in developing their understanding
of the latest technologies.
The Innovation-Hub website was built using a Content Management System (CMS).
It allows users to create and maintain websites without any knowledge of HTML, and
facilitates the creation of page layout with different content sections and other digital
content. It is also a bilingual, responsive website, which means it is suitable for every
device and every screen size, no matter how large or small, mobile or desktop. It inte-
grates seamlessly with google analytics data, which can be viable within CMS in a flexi-
ble dashboard gadget.
Finally, the website has added accessibility tools such as contracting, changing color
theme, and increasing or decreasing font size.
