Micropolis Digital Development FZ-LLC (“Micropolis Dubai”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, is a robotics manufacturer founded in 2014, based in the United Arab Emirates (“UAE”) with its headquarters located in Dubai Production City, Dubai, UAE. We specialize in developing autonomous mobile robots (“AMRs”) that utilize wheeled electric vehicle (“EV”) platforms and are equipped with autonomous driving capabilities. We have historically conducted our business through Micropolis Dubai. For purposes of this Offering, in February 2023, we incorporated Micropolis Holding Company (“Micropolis Cayman”), an exempted company with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands, as the listing vehicle for this Offering. In July 2023, Micropolis Dubai became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Micropolis Cayman. The Company is currently a pre-revenue organization since most of our existing projects are collaborative in nature and we do not anticipate earning substantial revenues until such time as we enter into commercial production for our robotics, which is expected to be by the second quarter of 2025. As part of our product offerings, we integrate application-specific pods that serve as the primary purpose of a robot. These pods are designed to accommodate various functionalities, including surveillance cameras, road sweepers, logistics compartments, as well as collaborative robots (cobots) intended for direct human-robot interaction. Collaboration-based Business Model Our business is collaboration-based. In collaboration with our customers and partners, we are actively engaged in the development of cutting-edge technologies that aim to bring enhancements in security, logistics, and surveillance operation management. We have established a strong track record of successful partnerships with local governments and real estate developers. Our work with the Dubai Police is a prime example of this ongoing effort; they are playing an essential role in the creation of “Microspot,” which is an AI-powered security software we are currently developing as of the date of this prospectus. In particular, the Dubai Police have assembled a team to assist us in shaping the Microspot software, providing crucial insights into police operations and supplying dummy data for data science and machine learning. This partnership has not only facilitated us in navigating regulatory complexities but also provided invaluable support in testing and validating our products. Further, we have partnered with Dubai Police to develop self-driving security patrolling vehicles that enhance security surveillance operations, to help reduce crime through security deterrence. We are also working closely with the Road and Transportation Authority in Dubai, UAE (“RTA”) through Dubai Police Innovation Lab. RTA is aiding us by designating the Jumeirah 1 area in Dubai as a safe testing environment for our autonomous driving system, which is still in development as of the date of this prospectus. RTA is also supplying high-definition maps of the area and data that will be essential in shaping the autonomous driving system. Furthermore, our ongoing partnership with The Sustainable City in Dubai is proving invaluable, as they provide us with both high-definition city mapping and a living lab within their residential community for testing and validation. This collaboration allows us to work within a real-life environment to iteratively refine our autonomous driving features. Further, we have also worked with The Sustainable City in Dubai to develop autonomous community delivery robots that are able to autonomously deliver goods within their assigned territory, making urban and sub-urban logistics more cost effective and energy preserving. Additionally, we have developed a surveillance robot for the ministry of interior in Saudi Arabia through our Saudi local partner Quality Support Solutions Limited (“QSS Robotics”), equipped with pan-tilt-zoom (“PTZ”) surveillance camera and a drone launcher. Together, these strategic collaborations underscore our dedication to the continuous development and refinement of our technological offerings, recognizing that our products are works in progress, with exciting potential for future growth and innovation. We continually strive for innovation and excellence, aiming to provide our clients with cutting-edge solutions designed to drive growth, streamline processes, and meet the evolving demands of the modern world. UAE-focused We operate in the GCC region, with a focus on the UAE and Saudi Arabia. The robotics industry in the UAE and Saudi Arabia is rapidly growing, with governments committing significant resources to technological advancement. Furthermore, Dubai, a hub for technological innovation in the region, presents a unique opportunity for the Company. With a robust portfolio of AMRs and a strong track record of successful partnerships with local governments, the Company is poised to take advantage of the growing demand for innovative robotics solutions in the Middle East. Our flagship products are customized AMRs that can operate without the need for human intervention. These robots can be used in a wide range of industries, including security, hospitality, real estate, retailing, city cleaning, and logistics. The robots can be equipped with advanced sensors, machine learning algorithms, and computer vision technology that enable them to navigate complex environments, avoid obstacles, and interact with humans. Our principal place of business is in Dubai, UAE.
