Warner Bros. Hotel and DoubleTree Residences seem really close to being finished. There were boxes being brought in, and a crane out front by the main entrance.

Miral, the developer of Abu Dhabi's Yas Island, has announced the launch of its Noor Initiative to drive forward the digital transformation of the tourism destination. The company said it is part of its ambition to become the region’s most dynamic and influential leisure and entertainment developer by 2025.

With the rollout of the new strategy, Miral said it will enhance its current investment in big data and predictive data analytics to build a digital foundation and integrate innovation. It added that the Noor Initiative will strengthen business efficiency and productivity while delivering better personalised experiences for visitors to Yas Island’s attractions and experiences.

Mohamed Abdalla Al Zaabi (pictured below), CEO of Miral, said: “Today, businesses need to invest in innovative digital tools to equip and empower its people, decision making and performance. Evolving into a data-driven organization is an ambitious and bold strategy, launched within a defining year for Miral as we mark our 10-year anniversary. "Big data and predictive analytics solutions are already central to Miral’s strategy for Yas Island, in use every day by visitors to our award-winning attractions to enrich their experiences and reinforce the island’s position as a leading global entertainment, leisure and business destination.”

Earlier this year, Miral announced that Yas Island will become a fully contactless destination through the adoption of FacePass, a cutting-edge contactless technology. Rolled out in phases across the island, FacePass is streamlining guest experiences and their safety via facial recognition technology, with Yas Theme Parks being the first theme parks in the region to adopt FacePass.

Ibiza’s legendary Café del Mar has announced it will open an international outlet in Abu Dhabi, The ‘Home of Chill’ has been in Ibiza for over 40 years, famed for its unrivalled sunset views and intertwining relationship with laidback music. The original beach club even has its own ‘Chill House’ music label and line of merchandise.

The Abu Dhabi branch looks to capture this same spirit. Nestled along the Yas Bay Waterfront, the venue will brush shoulders with the likes of Buddha-Bar and Lock, Stock & Barrel. The café will be found at Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island.

The venue will be managed by Capital Motion, the same management firm behind the likes of Siddharta Lounge and Caramel.

Yas Marina has been awarded the 5 Gold Anchor Platinum accreditation by The Yacht Harbour Association, which is the industry’s oldest marina association. The Yas Marina, under Miral, is the first marina in the UAE and GCC to receive the title, with The Yacht Harbour Association having only awarded five other marinas globally.
